Sending an FTP command from one web server to another?

[Matthias Rebbe]

Hi Tim,

i had some time during lunch and  made a quick test on my on-rev account at the Jasmine server. 
I am able to list the files of a non on-rev server without problems using livecode server. Jasmine runs version 7.1.0 of lc server.

Regards,
Matthias

If that also doesn´t work, then i would assume that your server is blocking the incoming connection from on-rev. If that works, then  livecode server seems to have a problem with ftp outgoing connections.

The ftp command from LC tutorials works fine from LC desktop (Community edition, Mac) to get the filelist:
>>> put url "ftp://user:pass@domain.com/folder/ <ftp://user:pass@domain.com/folder/> <ftp://user:pass@domain.com/folder/ <ftp://user:pass@domain.com/folder/>>" into myVariable
