Repeated prompt for password

[Guest imperialities@googlemail.com]

I have a XP ftp server running ServU ftp server version 6.

 

All clients connect to it via the lan: ftp://server or internet

ftp://outsidetoserver.

 

 

Users can browse the folders set up in ServU, and XP users even with

IE7 can open a word document for example.

 

 

However Vista users cannot. They get as far as seeing the word

document then when they double-click to open it repeatedly asks for

username and password. Even if I type the ServU administrator or the

administrator of the box username and password it just does the same.

 

 

I have tried lowering the security settings of IE7, upgrading ServU

to

version 7 and nothing seems to work. There's nothing in event logs

either.

 

Thanks!

I'm kinda glad to hear this, as that filetype can indroduce foreign code

to the system. I'll be interested to hear how this gets resolved for you.
