>>We have a server running Windows 2003 SP2 - the server can connect via FTP to our web site
>>
>>The workstations connected to the servewr have no FTP access although they can access the web with no problem
>>
>>It was working ok until yesterday - sounds like an automatic uupdate has upset one of the settings

>If the server wasn't rebooted after the automatic updates, that could be worth a try.

>I've seen cases (esp. with SBS) where applied updates that theoretically don't require a reboot end up stopping or disrupting the configuration of various running services. This can happen with updates applied to servers via WSUS, if you're using that.
>
>Another cause of problems is manually applying updates, but not finishing up by rebooting because it's not convenient (for the users) to do so at the time. After the updates have been applied but before a reboot, often some services are in "limbo" and/or not functional.

>After a reboot, check the event logs (especially System) to make sure it rebooted cleanly.
