We recently upgraded our 979 from 5.5 to 6.0.  We have several users whose the
WS_FTP to transfer files from the 3000 to their PC.  Since we upgraded to 6.0
they get the following error. I can FTP to the HP from a DOS prompt, from a AIX
machine, or from another 3000 without any problems, the only time we get this
error is when they this program. Has anyone else had this problem?  If so how
did you fix it? Thanks,Ted
