hi,

I am a bit confuse in term of idle and hammering, is it the same..?? and how is it to set not idle (60 seconds) in cute ftp pro??

thx

Idling is not the same as hammering. Hammering is the attempts made in a certain amount of time. When using cuteftp, go to global settings, and ensure you are not attempting to connect over and over too quickly. Most servers expect 65+ seconds between attempts, and make the attempts a max of 3-5.

Idle settings are done by the actual server - this is to ensure that people do not hold a connection when it is no longer needed. I use 300 seconds personally.

Hope this helps.

Good answer trm

[b:f762f63be1]fe_yang[/b:f762f63be1], Also when you first connect, [b:f762f63be1]read the Welcome message[/b:f762f63be1] at the very beginning.

Usually theres a custom message that defines or sets the rulez for that particular server, listing what the idle time out is, hammer, conn retrys, blah, blah, blah.
