I'm trying to setup an ftp server, but since i got this router its doesnt work.Looked at various posts here and tried a few ideas out but really losing hope on this.
ok here's what i've done:
i've set up a domain name with DynDns.org and given my external IP address for that.
i have then opened up ports 20 and 21 TCP and forwarded these to my computer holding the ftp ie its internal ip address within the network.
I'm using a program called Serv-U that is listening to port 21 and have setup up a domain, an ftp home directory and a single user account... but no one outside of the network can access the ftp...they can ping my domain name successfully...but thats it, it's as if my belkin router just doesnt port forward
any help on this would be much appreciated.
PS i've have only just started using Serv-U since i used to use windows Xp pro and its built in ftp IIS service... so i am open to suggestions on other apps to use...so long as someone can guide me on how to set it up. thanks
