Hi,

we've got an application, where we need to connect to an ftp server. In order to do this, we are using funtions of the wininet.dll. It's working on all machines except for machines which are using Windows XP SP2. On those machines we get a timeout (error 12002) when calling function InternetConnect of wininet.dll. We found out, that MS incorporated some RPC interface restrictions in SP2 but we haven't found a way to overcome those restrictions without opening the whole system. Does anyone know about this problem?

Thx in advance.

I DaWi,
I have a similar problem. I posted a message about it in the Windows XP Pro forum today. Don't have an answer yet though. I seems like a problem that many people would encounter, and there should already be a solution out there.

I'll let you know if I find a solution. Would you do the same please.

Good Luck.
