FTP Issue In Windows XP Proi was unable to FTP from a browser or ftp client on my PC. was fine from
another pc on my network who is getting internet via ICS running on my PC. but not from my pc. after poking around I came across some info on a service called Application Layer Gateway Service. I found that when I shut down this service I was able to FTP. wierder yet is that a restarting of the service (stop-start) fixes the problem too. I am tempted to just disable it and then be done with it. Anyone have any idea why I have to do this or can I just disable this without any problem Have you enabled FTP in the Windows Firewall exception list?

exceptions but only restarting of this service seems to allow ftp traffic. After doing more research I found I cant disable the service or my ICS wont work. And setting it to manual ends up starting it when ICS loads. it isnt that big a deal to cycle the service when I need to FTP but the bigger question is why and is there a way to not have to do this each time.

why is a mystery. Cycling the ALG service also cycles firewall so that would explain that, but still not why. Are you using IE for FTP, or the command line FTP client? -- Show quoteHide quoteRichard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] rghar***@gmail.com * NEW!
