alternatively if you want him to actually access your webspace then he will need and ftp client and your username and password so that he can upload files.

I disagree. Unless something has changed in the last few days, access to NTL webspace is only available when connected via NTL dial-up or broadband account.

With the correct credentials, any NTL user can access another NTL users webspace, but a BT user cannot access it.

I have tried virtually every permutation, as I wanted to be able to access my webspace from work. I eventually asked the questions on NTLHellWorld.com and got the answers I have stated above.

HTH, (and I would really love to be proved wrong on this).

I can access my parents NTL webspace via our Nildram ADSL account. Works fine

Would you care to share this information?

Here is the question I asked on NTHellWorld in January 2002

and here is a recent reply to someone asking the same question.

I did not get in until late last night, I'll post up how when I get back this evening.

You must be psychic, was just wondering how this thread was going, and suddenly, up to the top it popped.

darlodge

Sorry Fig, not good news

It would appear that you are correct!! I felt sure that I uploaded a few files from here to my parents webspace (NTL) as our Nildram webspace is not up and running yet.

Saying that, the master NTL account has recently changed but the orignal NTL webspace stayed the same. It should have changed and matched the new master account. Once I get NTL to sort out the webspace naming I'll try again from here and post a message on here to let you know how it goes.

Thanks Darren,

TBH don't think you will succeed, as every thing I have tried has failed and according to NTL gurus, it is designed to protect their network from outside influences.

Tiggie

bummer........ most disappointing. I shall have to find another way of doing what i wanna do. neone got ne free space to be used as an uploader ?
