I can connect to the web server using the Remote Web Site capabilities of Expression Web. It connects just fine and the website directory appears correctly in the right screen. However, when I try to transfer a file either way (using the arrows), I get this error:<br />
&quot;Could not find a Web server at '(Lists the serverIP)' on port 21. Please check to make sure that the Web server name is valid and your proxy settings are set correctly. If you are sure that everything is correct, the Web server may be temporarily out of service.&quot;<br />
I contacted my firewall service, and the request is initially coming in on Port 21, but then switches to a high port above 1024 for the file transfer. Those ports are, of course, closed by the firewall. It does not appear that the port is static, it would be easier if it was, we could just open it. But I do NOT want to open the high ports unless absolutely necessary.<br />
Front Page worked just fine, this must be one of those Microsoft improvements. Has anyone encountered this problem, if so, what is the solution?<br />

Cannot FTP using Expression Web

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.

Server Software

Microsoft applications include a variety of software programs, including development and digital authoring programs (Expression and Media Center), educational programs, Internet software, including Essentials, Skype and the Live family, anti-virus, productivity applications and suites like Office, Excel, Word, Outlook, Access and PowerPoint, video games and server applications such as Exchange, SharePoint, IIS and Virtual Server.

Microsoft Applications

Networking software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.
