FTP seems to be running fine as I can access it otherwise. Depends on the FTP server, but you can start in /var/log/messages, and then poke around in /var/log for other possible files. Also might need to look at the FTP server configuration to increase log verbosity. Alternatively, try to log in to the FTP server directly with the same user/pwd as SM is using and see if it tells you why it is not accepting connections. > Thank you again for your time, Paul.
