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

[trelimb]

Hey, I found out what the problem was with one of the FTPs I was trying to access. So my post earlier in this thread can be ignored.

Okay if you goto www.whatismyip.com do you get the same ip as what you think your ip is?

yes, yes I do.

My router tells a lie not.
any suggestions I havnt covered in my previous post?

[Lord Riff Raff]

See what happens when someone tries to ping you. If they can successfully ping you it's the BFTP's fault and change the port settings there. Otherwise it could either be the router or the virtual server.

[Drageuth]

I've gotten my FTP to work around my router before by triggering ports 1024-***** with my FTP port. I can't seem to remember what the second number is, and I think it's killing the PASV connection to my server.

Any help?

how do i put files into my FTP server

[Lord Riff Raff]

You want other people to be able to, or you yourself.

To let other people make an acccount with upload capabilities.
Otherwise just stick the stuff yourself in the root ftp directory (check the options of your ftpD).

213.118.140.239
username: Jake
Passw: 15925835

[Monkey D.]

port:21
login:ZeroshadowX
passw:9999
IP:24.125.55.11

[Calintz]

srry can't seem to get connected:
Resolving host name 24.125.55.11...
Connecting to (24.125.55.11) -> IP: 24.125.55.11 PORT: 21
Een verbindingspoging is mislukt omdat de verbonden party niet correct heeft geantwoord na een bepaalde tijd, of de gemaakte verbinding is mislukt omdat de verbonden host niet heeft geantwoord.
Cannot login waiting to retry (30s)...
Continue to login attempt 2...
Connecting to (24.125.55.11) -> IP: 24.125.55.11 PORT: 21

translation of the dutch line:
the connectionattempt failed because the corresponded party didn't awnser correctly after a sertain amount of time or the connection failes because te corresponded party didn't awnser

Help me out here Riff Raff. I am setting up a server on this machine. I have configured everything with Guild FTP. I am working through a router here, and that is the source of my troubles. I can connect to the server with an FTP client but the people I have asked to attempt to connect to it are unable to. I am using a D-Link router, I have Virtual Server FTP turned on (which works the same way as port forwarding), and I even tried leaving this system in the DMZ of the router. Suggestions?

Ok, I have the exact same problem.

Ok, My IP is in *.*.*.* format.

GuildFTP lists your own IP, and it says that mine is 192.167.0.2

whatsmyipadress (something like that) says its 141.*.*.*

If I try and connect to the 192 in my network, it works fine.

If I try and connect to the 141 in my network, it looks okay, but I see no files or folders.

From reports: If anyone else tries to connect to the 192, it doesn't work.

If anyone else tries to connect to the 141, they get the same problem.

Can I have a little help on this?

=EDIT= I tested on two different computers, but both were on the same network.

=DOUBLE EDIT= I think the problem is that my computer has one IP, but GuildFTP thinks that the IP is another, so it hosts on that IP, but only I can access it.

[Lord Riff Raff]

Oh yeah, magus fixed his problem.

192.* is an internal network ip. It'll only work for other computers on the network.

The one you want is the whatismyip.com address. Go and configure GuildFTPd to use it. You'll have to ask Magus for the specifics on what he had to do.
