Win2003
Ports 20 & 21 are open
IIS6 - Direct Metabase Edit enabled
Configured FTP service passive range to 5500-5550
5500-5550 added to windows firewall
iisreset and double checked by restarting ftp service
nothing has changed, when I connect and enter passive, it still hangs when ever I try to LIST or transfer files. Active is just as useless.

and it hangs..
Now I can see from microsooft documentation that on newer windows releases, additional steps such as these are suggested, but they dont work on 2003...
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name=”FTP Service” action=allow service=ftpsvc protocol=TCP dir=in
netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFTP disable
is there anything I am missing, what is this StatefulFTP malarkey at the end
EDIT
I can connect and transfer binary files using WinSCP client - Therefore the problem must be with my ftp commands no? Can anyone see anything wrong with my windows ftp client example? why would it hang on ls, i tried QUOTE LIST as well, and that just hangs, and the windows ftp client doesnt work in active, it hangs if I try to go "binary" then put - This worked before I added 5500-5550 on the router. I have since added this range to the router but no difference to the windows ftp client.
