Do you want to use the Dial-up Adapter or not

Check this if you do not want to use a dial up adapter for connecting to your FTP site. If you check the button below that, then you can select your dial-up adapter to be used by MBM 5 for the FTP transfer. If you get "not turned on" in the list box then this mean you have not turned RAS support on; go to the General - Advanced tab to turn this option on.

Please make sure that your dial-up adapter is configured to save the password, else MBM 5 cannot use it to make a connection

If you want to go more then 1 directory deep then make sure you use forward slashes (unix servers anyway, not sure about windows servers) like this: maidir/subdir or maindir/subdir/
