NutCracker, good to hear. [img]smile.gif[/img]

poolman, Plan is that this "Nest" will spawn lots of little Crows. [img]smile.gif[/img] I noticed that you are an FTP Sysop also. Over half of the group are. Hope you are getting some good vibs out of this for your Site. For the moment thought I would mostly let it crunch over the weekend. Likely a busy time. If all goes well, sometime next week I will stop things for an hour or so and do some Cleanup. :eek: :rolleyes: If we get that far, I suppose thats a good sign.

Megaduce and "me" need to get ourselves back on the list. I will keep checking for a break in the activity. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Hi BOOMSHOT, got your request. At the moment I have 6 folks "activated", but have not heard much from one of them. He may be out of town etc. so I will give him some time yet. I added you to my Hold List, hope to work through it at some point, or find some alternative way.

Hi Megaduce, I noticed you were back on (mostly by yourself). I got a bit of a break and did the pending Maintenance late on Fri. The ADSL line we are using is a typical "Home" connection. It works better than many "Cable" connections out there. My other line is a Business ADSL connection and it is twice the speed. I used the slower line so what we see happening would be similar to others doing a Home Broadband FTP Server. WarezRocks on his 10MB/10MB line is quite a bit faster, as are some others, but those links are T3, or better stuff.

Connections.....Connections.....Connections

If you use IP#'s to control Access, as we have been on the Server, it will alter how you connect with the Site. Using a Userid/Password to control Access or Anonymous most always connects, the problem in that case is a lack of "Security". The IP# approach has worked as follows:

WorkStation----Net----FTP Server

No problems, IEx.x and any Downloader works.

WorkStation----Net----D_Link F/W (DMZ)----FTP Server

No problems with IEx.x and FlashFXP using NutCracker's setting.
Other Downloaders have problems.

WorkStation----Linksys F/W----Net----FTP Server

No problems with FlashFXP, IEx.x and other Downloaders don't connect.

WorkStation----Linksys F/W----Net----D-Link F/W (DMZ)----FTP Server

Envelope Please...And the Winner is....FlashFXP

So far have not found any other way to do this one. If one is discovered, I will update accordingly.

The Firewall port settings/forwarding etc. are all the Default ones that occur if you do a "Master Reset" on the box. Keep in mind we are using "Port 2020" in this case.

This should answer all of "modD's" questions from before and for Others too.
At the moment everything else is [img]smile.gif[/img] :D [img]smile.gif[/img]

....so, when are you moving the FTP server over to the faster business connection so we can test that ?? :D :eek: :rolleyes:

Nutz

thanks crowdirt [img]smile.gif[/img] experiment results were crystal clear

so when ther are hardware firewalls on both ends, the server needs to be on DMZ, correct?

this thread is gonna be the bible for ftp owners especially newbies like me :D

I totally agree with you on that modD this definitely a learning experience for me.

Thanx for a great Learning experience Crow. :cool: :cool:
