I have EXACTLY the same problem connecting to my hosting provider from a Mac
and also from a Solaris Sparc Box. They are set up the same way as you, NT4,
IIS, MSFTP. I thought I was the only person having this problem!

Fetch sometimes works, but not all the time. It's extremely annoying because
I can't use the ftp functions in GoLive or DreamWeaver.

I have not yet found a solution.
