you can't ping a specific port
does your router have an option that is labeled something along the lines of Block WAN Request? If so, cut that off, and that'll let your IP be pingable. Otherwise, make sure the port is allowed in your firewall and make sure it's forwarded to your machine if you're behind NAT.
Sephiroth, re: Block WAN Request and Linksys router...
I'm sure this is the reason why you can't ping although i was under the impression that this feature was the esentially the router firewall ... and should not be disabled...????
I have the port opened up and would like one last attempt to get this server going...
Anyone have an ftp client that would like to try connecting..???
