Why does ZTERMs FTP client mess up, yet Microsofts command line FTP program works fine?
Since ZTERM 2000 uses part of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer program in order to do FTP, if MSIE is configured to use a Proxy Server for it’s FTP access, ZTERM probably won’t be able to do FTP since the Proxy Server will route the requests over to the Internet connection rather than keeping it on the local network. Resolving this problem is very simple, but varies depending on the version of Internet Explorer being used due to differences in the way the various versions of Internet Explorer work. In all cases, find the “Internet Explorer” icon on the desktop, right click on it, select Properties and then select the Connection tab. On IE 3.x, you must fill in the addresses of the hosts to bypass from the Proxy Server – in this case 10.1.4.1 is the host address. The “Do not use proxy…” option does not appear to work correctly with IE 3.x. On IE 4.x and Windows 98, just use the “Bypass proxy server for local (Intranet) addresses”. On IE 5.x use the Local Area Network Setting dialog. This
