yb2 -> ftp _private difficulties (8/17/2006 19:46:34)

I've been trying to backup an Access database I've got in the _private folder, but I'm having some difficulties. My usual FTP client, Cyberduck, can see the folder and list its contents but can't download anything from it successfully. FTP from the command line can't see the folder, and Filezilla can't see the folder. I'm logged with my "admin" account.

I'm going to get on to the webhost about this, but they're rubbish (I'm on the move soon) and likely won't get a helpful answer.

Anyone know why this might happen? I can't work out why different clients would see different things - especially the command line???

Try opening the site "Live" in Frontpage and publish it back to your local hard drive.

Hey Bobby,

I can't do that, the PF Extensions are broken and the host can't/won't fix them, so I'm stuck with FTP.

Host actually got back to me (for once with a proper answer) and said the folder had been set to hidden "for some reason". I don't see why someone should be fiddling with permissions when I haven't asked for it.

Can't wait to move!
