Lst night i set up an FTP server on my windows XP professional computer. when i tried, i could access it from another computer on the network,, but niw ive tried an external network, and it wont connect. I have set the router to allow port 21 access. my firewall also allows port 21.
i have the username and password to use, and the ip address.

any ideas, or definite solutions for me?

What IP address are you using? The internal IP address won't work external to your router.

For the external client, set it up to "passive" mode. FTP protocol by default uses more than just port 21.
