Hi,

I am trying to set up one machine in a network to get the dat update files by FTP and all the other client machines to look to this client to update their own dats (rather than having each and every client going out of the network to the FTP site).

Here is the output from the client that FTPs:

c:\ACU\ftp -A -i -s:ftpcmd.txt ftp.nai.com
Connected to ftp.nai.com.
220 sncwebftp2 Microsoft FTP service (Version 5.0).
331 Anonymous access allowed, send identity (email name) as password.
230-you are connected to ftp.nai.com.
230-Your use is subject to the terms and
230-condidtions in legal.TXT and usage.TXT files.
230-*Mirror sites at FTPEUR.NAI.COM and FTPDE.NAI.COM*
230-
230 Anonymous user logged in.
Anonymous login succeeded for Administrator@HOSTRK
ftp> cd /pub/antivirus/datfiles/4.x/
250 CWD command successful.
ftp> mget *.zip
Invalid PORT Command.

The clients are behind a firewall and am not sure if any ports need to be opened up.

Any ideas ?
