FTP

Hi experts!

I have a server running IIs
I need to FTP a couple of zip files to another address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Here it is a file that I'm about to use.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      ECHO open XXX.XX.XXX.XXX>00.txt
      ECHO *****>> 00.txt
      ECHO *****>> 00.txt
      ECHO cd XXXX>> 00.txt
      ECHO put XXX.zip XXX_%DATE%_.zip>> 00.txt
      ECHO put ZZZ.zip ZZZ_%DATE%_.zip>> 00.txt
      ECHO quit>>00.txt
ftp -s:00.txt -i
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, I need to know what does the server needs - software and/or services running - in order to do this task.

Many thanks

Duke

Yes I can.
so can ftp access xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx if not it can be blocked by a firewall
it could be using sftp as ftp is kindof being replaced with sftp as ftp it can be compromised

message 150 Opening hangs.

Would you please back to my initial post because probably I did not explain myself properly. I am kind of novice and I would like to know if the machine (server IIs) needs any software/service running which need to be installed.

Apart from that if the issue is about firewall how to resolve it. Please be patient as I said I am novice and some bits of information that can be obvious for advanced IT are not so easy for me.

Thanks
Duke
