FTP client communicates to FTP host via TCP/IP to transfer files.Transfer errors are "typically " caused by TCP/IP communications errors (but not always.)Session errors are trickier to diagnose.i.e. FTP server settings "could" reset the session after a specified time.Best bet is to enable logging on the server (enabled from the properties of the ftp server site)and recreate the error / conditions causing the error. (then review the logs.)Offhand . . . Why FTP?It's not a bad solution, but the overhead of running a FTP server seems wasteful.Maybe consider Robocopy as a solution?[url]http://ss64.com/nt/robocopy.html[/url]e.g. Map a drive (assuming windows environment) and use robocopy to transfer the backup file(s).(Far easier to setup & diagnose than a full FTP client/server solution.)MThu, 05 May 2011 11:33:52 GMTmark.pleasancehttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1055421-92-1.aspxPlease refer to the following article.If it does not work then please provide some additional information so that we can comp up with a solution.Wed, 04 May 2011 12:08:43 GMTWelsh Corgihttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1055421-92-1.aspxHi I am requesting some one explain the FTP process, I want to ftp the backup from one server to another.
