All, I created two users in FILEZILLA, i got two camera programs that can ftp to a folder.... i use 127.0.0.1 port 21 and this pgm runs fine... when i use 127.0.0.1 and port 21 in my other application that is an ip camera on my network... i get a server connect error... the other application runs on my hardrive with xampp... how can i get the camera on my network to login and ftp images to a folder? what setting do i need the ip address is 192.168.0.250 of my ip camera... and my pc is 192.168.0.100 thanks for your help.... can i also use port 80 to access via dyndns service to see both images remotely...or can i have the two separate applications upload images to the folder... this way i can look at all my images? thanks for your help harry

I'll deal with ONE issue -

when i use 127.0.0.1 and port 21 in my other application that is an ip camera on my network..

Well, sure -- because 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address of the machine XAMPP is installed on, not it's (the XAMPP machine) IP address on your network. In fact, generally speaking, 127.0.0.1 is the universal IPv4 loopback address for all equipment. Loopback refers to 'talking to itself' without transversing the network.

You'll need to determine the IP's of all the equipment on your local network as well as the default gateway (router address). The XAMPP server should be on a fixed IP.

Good Luck

all, thanks for your help... i got it going...i just used the ip of my computer that xampp is loaded as my server address and port 21... i used the xampp usr name and password... with the folder i want my image uploaded too.. note i did not need to specify a folder for my application... once i logged into xampp.... it knew where to dump my data.... pretty cool......hs..... camstudio is open source and its a great way to pass on what to do on a pc.... just a heads up.... now i got to figure out have to split port 80 with two dyndns addresses........
