Doesn't work with Omnis Hosting
I have a client who has web hosting through Omnis. ExpanDrive gives an error that this FTP server is not supported when I try to connect.
I don't know if there's any information I can give you that would help determine the problem. I couldn't find any logs that seemed like they would help.
This isn't a huge deal, although it's perhaps the client where ExpanDrive would help me the most. :-)

I’m sad

Inappropriate?Hi, fitzage,
We have run into a few FTP servers that do not implement enough of the FTP specification for ExpanDrive to work reliably. In our FTP beta, we did not check for this situation, and it led to confusing errors at unpredictable times that made it seem as if certain files were unreadable/unwritable. For our release version, we made the decision to test for compatibility up front, and report this error, rather than letting random errors occur later in the session.
If you'd like to discuss the technical aspects of the problem, perhaps with an eye toward getting Omnis to upgrade their FTP support, please feel free to drop us a line at <support@expandrive.com>. -
Inappropriate?Thanks for the prompt response. I think I may just use it as another reason to try to convince the client to switch hosts.
