If there is no webserver on this port you could DNAT to the FTP server. If there is you could consider running WebDAV instead of FTP, and using a reverse proxy to forward the traffic to the inside box on a certain resource. > I may have some control over outside servers. Set up a VPN tunnel between the two machines and DNAT a port from the outside server to the firewalled box. Hope this gives you some ideas. Jesse
