Talk:FAQ

Purpose of FAQ

The FAQ is to provide answers to common questions, not to ask questions. CodeSquid 13:39, 25 July 2007 (CEST)

i have installed an ftp server on my pc. when i connect to my pc with another pc it's ok he detect that is an ftp connection when i connect to my pc with a mac it's not ok. i don't have the premission to put file on it i'm using the same account for the pc and for the mac.

Documentation needed on which FTP commands are supported

For example, I need to know if FZS supports the STOU command, but I have found no such list or discussion.

You could use the HELP command to get a list of all known commands. --CodeSquid 20:53, 28 September 2007 (CEST)

How to use behind a firewall

Filezilla 3.0.1 appears not to provide any support for FTP proxies. A FAQ should be answered as to why an official release doesn't support this feature.

FAQ page locked

The FAQ page is locked, this prevents friendly people helping keep it up to date, eg (see General FAQ #3)

FileZilla 3 has now been released for all platforms on 2007-10-17 (version FileZilla 3.0.2). Current version is now 3.0.4.1 (2007-11-27).

Questions

Has anyone figured out how to import old sitemanager settings [filezilla.xml] to filezilla 3 on vista? please share the knowledge!

• export the settings from FileZilla2 using File | Site Manager then in the window that opens select File | Export
• see here for how to import the settings or visit the forum.

Please use the forums (http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/forum) to ask questions. The talk pages are purely to discuss the content of these pages, not for support questions.

Perhaps a wiki is also a good forum to ask questions?

Use the forums to ask questions, keep the wiki to provide concrete solutions. --CodeSquid 01:32, 30 October 2007 (CET)

I want to add a FAQ

FAQ: I am having trouble transferring log files. I get an error "550 can't access file." on both the server interface and the FTP client.

Answer: Often log files are locked for writing by the process that they are logging. In order to transfer this type of file, open the Server Options, go to the Miscellaneous node, and select "Allow downloading of files which are open for writing by another process"

It probably isn't a FAQ, but the FAQ is the only server documentation you have so far.

Fulfills the AQ part of FAQ, but certainly not the F one. Seen this question for the first time now. --CodeSquid 02:25, 22 November 2007 (CET)

Better overview for FAQ

Hi, it's the first time I visit this FAQ. The first thing I noticed is that there is no index. I think an Index would give an better overview, and I don't need to search for informations in the details of the FAQ-text. regards Antonio.
