Has anyone of you used your a computer as a FTP server, I am trying to do it but for some reason or another, if I do not disable my firewall, this FTP server will not work.
Do you know what must be done besides getting the router to point to the desktop? What port must I open so that I would be able to access my FTP Server. I will appreciate it if there is any help |

FTP usually runs on port 21, so make sure that is open and you haven't put it into stealth mode or something. Most firewalls (hardware and software) have preset settings, such as an FTP one, an HTTP one etc, to set it up to allow these various services. I know that Norton does, Netgear and Linksys routers do, and a whole host of others.

I am using the default windows firewall, so what you are saying is that besides 20 and 21, I should open other ports too? |
