It looked like it connected. You are putting in the correct IP address for your xbox? Have you tried FTP'ing from diff dash's? It says password required for xbox, and it' hidden, are you putting the right password into the right spot? the user name is xbox and so is the password.

 

K, for me that error doesn't say much. lol .... Crap, I was just gonna give you a link to instructions for FTPing to an xbox but they're all too long and dragged out, I'll feel like a prick.

OK, In the xbox set your IP to static-192.168.1.100

PC, In the internet protocol properties set it to, 192.168.1.200, - subnet 255.255.255.0
You get to that through the network thing in the control panel. You should now that.

Ummm, you're sure you're using a crossover/patch cable?

In flash don't change anything but the IP addy, and the username/password, = xbox/xbox. (unless you changed that in the xbox) In flash the ip should be set to 192.168.1.100

That's all for now. Hopfully that all makes sence, I'm rushed here.

 

Quick troubleshooting.. long time since I used flash (it's annoying)

You must have no "default gateway" set in your pc eth0 settings (unless there is a hub/router involved) otherwise it will connect and then close.

PASV (passive mode) can be set in the connection type dialog in the flash settings/options menu, somewhere.

I found cuteftp was easier to set up.

 

I haven't had to do this in a long time either. You like CuteFTP better? From what I remember I didn't like it and went back to flash. You can FTP with Internet Explorer too. (not that you want too though.)

 

I actually found wsFTP_pro was by far the best ftp client.. but that all ended when I changed my entire house over to linux.

FlashFXP is a pain, not helped by people using broken cracked versions all over the place. A friend tried 20 different cracked ones before he found one that worked properly .. I just used cute when I was there.. much less heartache...

So in conclusion.. CHECK THOSE SETTINGS.. 3 times, make a coffee, reboot and check again, then reboot etc.. Once you have connected once it becomes easy.. I can do it on any OS seemingly with my eyes shut... so much so that I find it hard to explain what I do. It's automatic.

Something else not to be overlooked is this.. if it is a second NIC which has been running the internal side of a shared network internet connection it could have the windows DHCP server running, which sets that network to 192.168.0.x and can't be changed.. always worth checking that by enabling DHCP in the xbox dash and trying to connect.

 

He hasn't even posted back yet. Maybe he got it goin..

 

hey guys thanx for your help youve been great BUT im using VSTA does anybody know how to set up xbox ftp via crossover with VISTA? im gonna download and try cuteftp later.. also id like to mension i tried to access ftp via typing the ip in windows explorer and a list of drives popped up c,d,f etc.. top of the page it said to access the folder click on page and view something.. ive forgot what it asked anyway when i tried doing what it said i kept getting username password prompt.. typed in username:xbox password:xbox and it wouldnt let me in kept saying wrong log in.. i orderd the crossover cable of ebay.. if it was the incorrect cable would i still have been able to view the drives like i did via ftp in explorer bar? sorry for going on and on..
thanx

 

sorry for late reply not got internet access at the moment.. so ill be replying when i can..

 

Put your settings in the one that is highlighted.

 

hey thanx for the pics is it possible for you to post pics of the screen where you insert the ip settings etc so i can get a better idea if im doing something wrong.. once again i really appreciate everyones help.. oh yea and the crossover cable im using is a
(utp patch cord 26awg 4p iso?iec 11801 tia?eia 568 cat5e)thats what it says on the cable.. is it the correct type?
thanx

 

the print on my crossover cable:

utp patch cord 26awg 4p iso/iec 11801 tia/eia 568 cat5e

 

Yep, me thinks that's the right cord. (Patch cord)

In the pic, highlight what I have highlighted and click the properties button and you'll see this..



If you set 192.168.1.100 like I do then the xbox will be 192.168.1.200
Make sure your xbox network is set to "static".

The xbox IP is the one you put in flashfxp or whatever you plan on using.

If it still wont connect than something small and likely stupid has been missed. It'll be one of those "AHHH, $#@#%, can't believe it was that the whole time" things.

 

hey logik just like to say you been a real help upto now and would like to say i appreciate you trying to help a xbox newbie like me.. gonna give it a try later today let you know how i get on.. thanx dawg

 

hey i hope i aint pushing my luck by asking if you could show me the exact way your xbox settings are listed on your xbox?
thanx again...

 

If I had a camera I would take a pic, but I'm poor so I don't. XBMC is my main dash but it should be pretty much the same thing.

Assignment = Manual(static)
IP Address = 192.168.1.200
Netmask = 255.255.255.0
Default gateway = 192.168.1.1
DNS server = 192.168.1.1

The default gateway and DNS server I don't remember entering so maybe leave those blank the first attempt to connect, and if it doesn't work enter the settings.


Good luck!

 

hey logik thanx for reply just when i thought i had it i got the following error on flashfxp:

Maybe your firewall is blocking the connection..? dunno. Turn off and firewalls you have.
