    Default Problems connecting through a firewall

    Hi,

    We are testing contribute with a client of ours. I've set up a simple test
    site which works fine with Contribute from our offices. The client is behind a
    firewall and after turning off FTP performance optimisation option can get as
    far as connecting but when they click to edit the page they get the following:

    "Contribute encountered a network or file system error. Please try the
    operation again..."

    We are using the Serv-U FTP server and I can't see any problems in the logs.

    Does anyone know what the problem could be or how to investigate further?

    Thanks very much.

    I've used the logging
    ([url]http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19506[/url]) and
    it's saying:

    35 31/01/2006
    13:27:22 772518 netio/FTP GetData REMOTE_IO_ERROR 20 150 0.7559 [url]ftp://10.184.28[/url].
    1:21/ /index.htm.LCK

    meaning that it can't get the index.htm.LCK file I think. But the FTP server
    logs say that it's sending it successfully.

    There's also a lot of RESOURCE_DOESNT_EXIST entries in the log where it's
    trying to find the mm directory.
