Ken,
  You didn't say which computers. If you are using a Mac with personal 
file sharing, each computer could have it's own firewall - independent 
of any network firewall - would account for the symptoms you described.

 Subject: Can't FTP - any ideas?

 Hi, I am trying to do an FTP upload from one Mac to another on the same
  network, and although I have FTP turned on and no firewall in place, 
even
 simple commands like:

 put "Hello" into url ("ftp://myName:mypass@ftp.myserver.com/test.txt")

  doesn't work. I get "error socket timeout". This also happens when I 
use
  libURLFTPUploadFile, and also regardless of whether I set the mode to 
active
 or passive. I can get to the FTP site through other FTP clients or the
  terminal, but not through Rev. And the exact same thing works properly 
if I
 try to FTP to the *same* machine.

 Any ideas I could try?
