Im having problems accessing my ftp server remotely. But when I used my dyndns to connect it works fine. Which also means that Im connecting locally cause Im using the same ip address. Im behind the router and my internal ip addy is 192.168.1.2. So then, Ive configured my router to forward all incomming port 21 connections to 192.168.1.2. And ive found some issues after this and its PASV PORT THEFT. I've resolve it already by adding this line to /etc/ftpaccess class all real,guest,anonymous * port-allow all 0.0.0.0/0 pasv-allow all 0.0.0.0/0 then I restarted xinet and connect to my box by ftp evilnero.ath.cx well obviously it works fine . But when I used my shell account and connect toe evilnero.ath.cx It didnt work. Later, I changed the port of the ftpd at /etc/services and changed it into 27015. Still I cant connect. I checked my ports at grc.com well the result was port 21 and even ssh is stealthed. I then tried my ssh daemon if I could connect. Well it worked very very fine. I believe the problem lies within my configuration thanks for the help note: i've already configure my router to forward incomming 21 to my box with ftp daemon -- Mariel "Banjo" Donila Software Developer Cronus Group Incorporated www.cronusgroupinc.com "Only the defiance of the truth shall adhere peoples life to adopt the reality" -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
