is there something i should do differently from the old days of uploading a file to make it work in the new FTP?
thanks.
Well Net2Ftp is really just a web interface to the underlying FTP server, where as the siteadmin upload completely bypasses the FTP server. We have another tool that is rather depreciated as well that bypasses the ftp server, but doesn't work quite as well.
The only real reason for Net2FTP not to work are the same reasons why regular FTP doesn't work, it's either your firewall or your web browser setup. The siteadmin upload was only ever meant to one-shot upload, eg while you're on the road somewhere. As what it does is it uploads the file, then tells the updater to update... in theory at least.
