Thanks for the suggestion - I'll see what I can do

Let me know what they say and we'll take it from there.

The message means just what it says - the server closed the connection for some reason. What that reason might be, I really don't know for sure... it could simply be that there are too many people connected. To find out more, please send me an FTP Transcript file when this happens again. Select 'Save FTP Transcript' from the File menu and send it to support at yummysoftware dot com

I doubt that it's the cause of this problem, but what settings did your technician tell you to change?

Passwords are stored in the keychain by default since v1.5. Previous versions stored them in the encrypted Bookmark file for each server - keychain storage was optional.

The 'Macintosh front end' you refer to - is that the KeyChain Access application? If so, your request/suggestion should be sent to Apple since they are the only ones that can make alterations to that software.

At the moment, though, it's not going to be possible to tie together the changing of, for example, an Active Directory password and an FTP server password. They are two entirely different settings and there is no way to 'just know' that they happen to be the same password. I'm not even sure that it would be desirable behavior for the majority of people.

On the other hand, I may have completely misunderstood what you're after...

Hi again, Chrissa

Sorry to have scolded you about the postings - thanks for clearing them up

Thanks for the virtual kiss I look forward to hearing from you.

-Jason

Hi chrissa,

Contact me via email: support at yummysoftware dot com

Send me your web site address, and you server details (server, username, password) and I'll sort out what the problem is. Note that I shouldn't be doing this since it's really rather a problem with your webhosting than Yummy FTP, but I'm too nice a guy to turn you away 

In future though, please post to a single section - posting the same topic in multiple areas won't get me or anyone else to help you any quicker, and it's just a little annoying

Cheers,
Jason

Finding an iCal calendar and renaming it is probably in the realm of the Finder - I guess you have those parts done in your Automator action already? The only missing part is to write an AppleScript that invokes Yummy FTP to upload your file to the server and location of your choice. This is how you do it:

1. Add a final Automator Action - Run AppleScript
2. Paste the following script:

on run {input, parameters}
   
   tell application "Yummy FTP"
      UploadURL "ftp://username:password@servername/fullpathtodestination/" with input
   end tell
   
   return input
end run

3. Since you'll need to include a full URL to your upload destination, replace the relevant parts in the example shown. If the password is stored in the Keychain then this (and its preceding colon) can be omitted.

Remote zip and unzip will be included in the next update 

If anyone wants to test it, I have it working in the latest build.

No way to do it with standard FTP, but over an SSH connection (for example) you can remotely issue any command you wish, as if you were using Terminal.

Currently, there is not a remote zip/unzip function. However, this is becoming a frequent request, so look for it sooner than later

Just to note that the latest beta build of Yummy has this problem fixed.

Your server limits the number of connections you can have open at the same time. By default Yummy FTP uses multiple connections to speed up transfers and the number of simultaneous connections is set to 5. If you tried to open another connection or make another transfer then you would get this message from the server.

So, all in all, this is just a limitation of your server and not a problem with Yummy FTP as far as I can tell.

If you continue to have this problem, write to me at support at yummysoftware dot com and we'll examine it further

hehehe I was just kidding, but that chocolate does sound very Yummy!

I'll add you to the beta list then. Thanks!

Of course I did! But that's ok... you can pay me later 

Seriously though, are you not already a beta tester?? If not, I'll add your name to the list, if that's ok.

I've fixed this and will distribute a new beta shortly. The problem has nothing to do with the folder names or structure, btw
