BOOT.elf, or boot.ELF etc isn't the same as boot.elf.
Make sure its renamed all to lower casing...should work fine! :)
its like that, and thats the way it is!

You guys need to read the 1st post including digi-tal's guid and my posts on the 1 page then you guys will find out how to solve your guys problems. If you've done that and still can't connect to your ftp then it's your firewall setting etc. The guid works just following it.
if you are too lazy to read all the post, here is the guid.

Do you want to know how to install games to your PS2 via LAN? If yes read on.
I had not tried this until yesterday and have only just got it working. I had great difficulty in getting info on how to do this as most guides take you part way there and then stop.
What you will need
For this guide I will expext you to have the following:
Playststion 2 Console
HDD for the PS2
PS2 Network Adaptor
HDLoader/HDAdvance
PS2 Memory Card
PS1 Game
These must all be working together and you MUST be able to run games off the HDD
The only web address you will need is http://www.google.com/ and the will to use it.
Step 1 - FTP
To start off you will need to be able to FTP to your Playstation 2.
For this part you will need to connect your PS2 HDD to your computer. You will have to open your PC case to connect the HDD. Watch the jumper setting if you connect it to a slave channel.
Now you will need to download ExexFTP 0.68 and CDGenPS2 3.0.
Extarct both of the files and run CDGenPS2.
Now drag SYSTEM.CNF from the folder you just extracted ExecFTP to into the right hand side of CDGenPS2.
Right click on the SYSTEM.CNF in CDGenPS2, select edit, check 'FIX LBA' and type '12231', then OK.
Drag CONFIG.DAT and EXECFTP.ELF into CDGenPS2, click image and save as '.iso' in your ExecFTP folder.
Download and extract hdl_dumb 0.7.3. Now install the image you just created to your localy connected PS2 HDD using this program.
Step 2 - Connecting
Connect your PS2 to your PC using a crossover network cable or hub/switch/router.
Boot your PS2 using HDLoader/HDAdvance and run your newly installed ExexFTP software. You should end up with FTP Server initialized on port 21...!
Now run FlashFXP on your PC and press F8 for Quick Connect. In the 'Server or URL' box type '192.168.0.10' (this should be the IP of the PS2). Chose the 'toggles' tab and clear 'Use passive mode'. Now hit 'Connect'.
You should now have a FTP connection to your PS2.
Step 3 - Install the hdl dumb server
Download titleman from PS2 Independance and extract to your c:/ drive.
Open command prompt Start>Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt and type 'cd \' to get to c:/> and type 'titleman -c' to create TITLE.DB and then type 'titleman -a SLES_008.44'
SLES_008.44 should be repalced with the ID of your PS1 game. Found if you open the disk in explorer.
Go and find the TITLE.DB file on your c:/ drive and copy it. Now go to the folder you extracted hdl_dumb 0.7.3 into and select paste.
Rename the hdld_server.elf to BOOT.ELF.
Go back to FlashFXP where you should still have a connection to your PS2. In the left hand window select your hdl dumb folder. In the right hand window select 'MC > 0 > BEDATA-SYSTEM'.
Now copy BOOT.ELF & TITLE.DB from the left window to the right. Disconnect the FTP.
Step 4 - The end
Insert your chosen PS1 Game into your PS2 and restart. This should now boot to the hdl dumb server.
Re-open hdl dumb and change 'Target' to 'Networking Server, at'. The software should connect to your PS2 and be ready to install games.
Now to install/run games using the PS2 use the HDLoader disk. To install games using your networked PC use the PS1 disk.
Hope this helps a few people out.
I will edit it as I re-read but am too stoned now!

adam7261 and jacksQs: i was reading this: IP address is configured via mc0:SYS-CONF/IPCONFIG.DAT and the proper format is "ip_address networking_mask gateway_ip" (w/o quotes). The default configuration is "192.168.0.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1". on http://hdldump.ps2-scene.org/howto.html and i've found out that you have to create the SYS-CONF folder on m/c/0 folder and create the file IPCONFIG.DAT and put it in there. Then you edit the IPCONFIG.DAT file and put the ps2 ip that your router gives it to your ps2. mine is 192.168.2.21 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1. it works like a dream for me. I hope it helps you guys too.

In Step 3, I went to MC > 0 but I did not see BEDATA-SYSTEM. I did see BADATA-SYSTEM, so I went ahead and copied BOOT.ELF & TITLE.DB there. Hoping that would work, I put in Tomb Raider as my PS1 game but the actual game loads up rather than the hdl dumb server.

Can you burn the image to a cd and load it via HDLoader instead of HD_Dumb? I hooked my HD up to my pc and completley destroyed my system some how

Still having troubles with this, got everything installed on my Hard drive as explained but when I load the image I get a black screen, no initialization on port 21 or whatever. So what do I do? or what did I do wrong?

when saveing the image save as an ".BIN" file, then use CDmage to fix the image(it have errors). then use ultraISO(thats what i used) to convert to ".ISO" then send the ISO with HDL_dumb.
I patch "viewtiful joe" and got it working last night.
.... 45 min to send a 2.3 GIG ....
also installed "MGS : snake eater".
"with out" have to remove HD :)

Babycake or digi-tal, i have been working on this project for almost two days now. i have gone through the guide and done everything that i am suppose to. i get to the point where i have to ftp my ps2 and my pc and this is where i am at:
the imagenps2 file on my ps was run and i got the usual "ftp server initialized on port 21...!" so far so good.
now when i go to flashfxp and hit f8 for quick connect, i enter "192.168.0.10" in the server url field. and then i uncheck the passive mode box in "toggles" and then hit connect....it says connecting to bla bla bla, and then it says "connection failed,[no route to host]
this is the most important par. without the connection i cant get the boot.elf and title.db to the memory card. any suggestions???
toozit
actually, i have tried everything over again and now flashfxp is telling me the the attempt to connect is "timing out" man this is frustrating...
i give up...
