Ok, I thought I had it figured out but once again I am wrong. Problem, setting a FTP server under Red Hat. The client needs to access the files thru Internet Exploder! Every time he tries to go down to the sub directory of the ftp root he gets this error message. 550 FTP Error test: not a plain file. But with regular FTP software I have know problem accessing the sub directories. Any ideas?
