FTP Client or Server problems? Post here. All other threads auto-closed

[Kilorn Rasata]

I've got a problem. I set up an FTP using GuildFTP, and it works perfectly fine, until the wireless router we have for my roommate's internet is connected. If I run my connection straight from the modem to my computer, the ftp works. I can't figure out how to get it to work properly when the connection runs through the router. Any advice, suggestions, help?

Much appreciated. This thing is giving me a headache because I can't figure it out.

Open up port 21.

It shouldn't however they will probably need to connect via passive mode themselves. Get a mate to test it out in passive and active to see if your firewall blocks certain attempts.

Ok also what does it mean if i get alot of hostmask's that end with .btcentralplus.com

EX **.***.***.**-host 81-152-130-71.range81-152.btcentralplus.com

i had another a yesterday with the same hostmask but a diffrent IP.

[Lord Riff Raff]

That would probably be the isp of the user trying to connect. Either that or it's an ftp bot scouring the net. By the way you can fake hostmasks.

I've been trying to set up an FTP (I used the guide on this forum) so I can share some stuff between me and one of my buddies. However he kept timing out. Then I had a couple of people try it, they timed out. They also timed out when trying to ping me.

Now I don't have a router or firewall, and I'm using Qwest DSL. Suggestions please?

Oh yeah, using GuildFTP.

I used the original IP it gave me, which made everyone time out.

Then I went to whatismyip.com and got that one, and entered it manually. Then the connection was just refused.

www.no-ip.com

you can set up a free domain name with them example http://whatever u want.no-ip.com

they have a program that updates the ip of the domain if your running a site or ftp from your computer

I can't connect to ANY FTP's at all. I've tried most from here, and a couple of my own to test them, and they just refuse to connect. I've tried in both Passive and Active mode, and also in Binary and ASCII transfer modes. Any help would be appeciatied.

[Dark Neighbour]

Smart FTP.

Sorry, shoulda put that in my first post...

[djnickname]

Are you behind a router or firewall?

And I use FlashFXP , it's a very nice and easy to use app for ftps

[Cyberxion]

I'm not entirely sure, but he might be running into this problem because you didn't give him download permission. In other words, he can view the contents of your FTP, but not download anything.

[Malikman]

i use guildftpd and when i go to my ftp then click emulators it says 425 download failed.... any ideas?

[Dark Neighbour]

The only thing that would resemble a firewall would be my server, which hasn't got any firewalls enabled...
