FTP help

[captainjrl]

I have an HDVR2 running 4.0.1b. I have telnet and ftp to startup in my .author file. I can connect both ways no problem, but I am trying to get the tytools server ftp'd over to my Tivo and am getting errors. I'm following the TyTools Setup FAQ. After I connect to my Tivo via ftp this is what happens:

230 No Auth required for TiVo Mode.
ftp> bin
200 Type set to I.
ftp> cd /var/hack
250 Directory change successful.
ftp> mput *
mput NowShowing.tcl? y
200 PORT command successful.
425 Error connecting; Connection timed out.
451 Error opening data connection.
mput tserver_mfs7_mips? y
200 PORT command successful.
425 Error connecting; Connection timed out.
451 Error opening data connection.
ftp>


When I first attempted I was getting 550 errors but now I am getting these. I tried doing a restart on my DTivo, but the same still happens.

TIA

Are you running a software firewall?

[captainjrl]

Yes, Zone Alarm (the free one). However I am not getting any pop ups from it regarding the ftp when I use it. The access column is checked for both internet and trusted. The server column has ?s on both.

Did you try turning it off?
What about passive mode?

Diasbling worked, so I'm up and running.

However, I'd like to configure it so that the next time I need to ftp something over, it will work while my firewall is still running.

Anybody have any experience with the Zone Alarm free Firewall?

I would go into the Alerts tab in Zonealarm and look for any the display the IP address of your TiVo. It they say "not allowed" or "blocked", then right click on the alert and choose "allow" or add to trusted zone.

Thanks, I was able to get it working without having to disable the firewall now.
