Hello, I'm building an FTP client using just winsock. I cant use indy
because I will need to make this run on a palm too and so am writing it
in windows 1st to figure out the FTP protocol.
I am issuing the PASV command and successfully opening the data channel
given the returned PORT. The first RETR i do works fine and I get the
file successfully . The second RETR I do causes an FTP response of "425
can't open data connection". Why am I getting this error?
Do I need to issue some command in between RETR commands?
Do I need to issue a PASV between each RETR and get a new port? I
believe i tried this and got an error anyway saying that data connection
had already been open.
Thanks for the help,
Mike
