FTP Addresses

[maximum6]

What do I need to do in order for users to be able to access FTP by connecting to their server's ip addy rather than the box's default address?

If it's a master server, run the config utility program again. Walk through the wizard leaving all the values as they are until you get the the ftp settings. Change it from the current IP to Blank (All). Finish walking through the wizard and then restart the monitor.

 

 

 

If it is a remote server simply leave the IP field blank in the server config.

Yea, I had that setup correctly...so it must be something else.

Your ftp client is sending the PORT command, which means the ftp server connects to your computer. You are problabyl running a firewall on your home PC so the ftp server can't connect to it.

 

Try enabling passive mode in you FTP client. This will make it work the other way around. Your home PC connects to the server.

 

If you have a firewall on your server you will need to open ports 5000 to 5100 TCP or add TCAdminMonitor.exe and TCAdminService.exe to your allow list.

Actually, its because he's behind a firewall at his location, and using private IP's... He does need to turn on Passive mode so he can ftp correctly.

Passive mode fixed it. Thanks for the quick fix everyone!
