I use bulletproof server, but also have used servU...
I really don't think that the Server Program is the problem, I really believe the problem is in the NAT box... I just want to find out how to setup a router to use non standard ports, if this is possible....
Like Crowdirt mentions, I understand that most NAT boxes are setup for ftp to run threw port 21, but Many people do not use this port for differnet reasons (hackers,cablecompanys,M$,etc.)My Question is, how to set up NAT so that a nonstandard port can be used ?
Any of the brand name routers web sites I have been over and over, and most do not even speek of this...
I have been to Many forums on broadband, and a couple touch on this but don't really go into depth about it...
If you Can't setup these hard coded NAT routers like Linksys, Netgear, SMC, etc., then I suppose the only real way to do this is a Software NAT program that you set up on a Linux box and program yourself, but I am a year or so away from knowing how to write Linux code...
I also have not the cash for a $5000 cisco box that probably can be programed and filtered to use non-standard ftp ports...
I really am just looking for some place to go and learn more about what I am talking about here, even my MCSE in networking essentials and TCP/IP do not get into this....
Again, thanks for the input and Ideas
