Thanks Guys,

It was the password that has expiered, I managed to
change this password using the Computer Management under
Adminastrative tasks.

Although this is now connecting - when i connect to the
FTP account as i would normally do, it loggs on to the
wrong directory and i cant upload at all.

The FTP message is as follows:
      200 PORT command successful.
      LIST
      150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.

What is '/bin/ls' - when it finally connects it shows the
directory i have connected to as '/'.

Also when connected i have checked that the connection is
active by viewing it through 'active connections' button
found in the ftp account properties.

In the ftp properties on the server i have checked the
home directory and even changed it to 'C:' so i should in
theory see the whole of the hard drive.

This is very confusing for me - have i messed a setting
up on the server or something?

Thanks for all your input - I appreciate all of it.

Regards Mark Ashcroft.
