The Story of David Kaspar

When sending a still image (jpg) via my DCS-2100+ cameras FTP server to my web page directory the file on the web server is always zero (0) bytes and named video.tmp. When logging into the DCS-2100 I see the video.jpg file and if downloaded to my local desktop it's a valid "viewable file". I've tried to switch the FTP mode to "Primary FTP passive mode" on the DCS-2100, but that didn't help either.

Interestingly, when changing in "Tools>Applications" the FTP format to include the time stamp I will receive files of format jpg instead tmp, but all of them have a size of zero bits and no content too.

Please find below information on firmware and configuration. I've sent the same info to d-link support but got a step by step instruction on how to setup FTP, something I already did correctly...

Thanks, Stefan
