Error Message From Yawcam FTP Operation Console when trying to send pictures to the server.
FTP Error: 550 CWD failed. “C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Shared Documents/FTP-W7CRW-101A” not found: directory not found.

It appears that Yawcam may be sending the directory string using a forward slash whereas the server is expecting a directory string using the Windows convention of a backslash and could cause the file transfer to be rejected.

Is this a bug in the Yawcam application or am I missing something?

The ‘File’, and ‘Stream’ features of Yawcam work just fine and I can transfer pictures from the Yawcam PC directory path to the server PC directory path – I would like to send the pictures directly to the server PC directory. I’m using HSMM-MESH with LinkSys routers for interface between the PCs. I’ve also tried another FTP server application (Argosoft) with the same results.

A response to this request for assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks
Gary
