How do I setup an FTP server on Windows 7?
- by Matt Frear
I'm having trouble getting an FTP server setup on Windows 7.
I've added the service using Control Panel - Programs - Turn Windows features on and off.
I can see the service has started in Control Panel - Services.
But then when I fire up a Windows command-line window, cmd, I get Not connected.,
C:\Users\mattf>ftp localhost
ftp> ls
Not connected.
ftp> open localhost
ftp> ls
Not connected.
ftp> dir
Not connected.
ftp> quit
C:\Users\mattf>
And that's as far as I've got. I have no idea why this isn't working - could it be firewall settings?
