Kindly help !

I have created a FTP site on a Win2003 server.
I am only accessing the server within my LAN.
I have no problem logging in to my FTP server using WinXP.
But when using Win2K Pro, I cannot login.
I am using IE to login to the FTP site, ftp://10.x.x.x:97.
I am also using user login and password for security.
The error is 'the server name or address could be resolved'.

Thanks So Much.

After some testing, I realised that in Win2K Pro, I have to login 2x to
ftp://10.x.x.x:97 using 'username@domain.com' and password.
1st time after login, nothing is diplayed on the screen.
I need to right click on the IE and select 'login as' and enter again
'username@domain.com' and password.
I am using IE 6.0 on my Win2K Pro.

While in WinXP Pro, I do not have to do this.
Can any one explain why ?

Thanks

No idea, in this case it is ftp client app issue,
check the IE setting on both OSes.
