b0dyrot local noob join:2008-10-23 North Port, FL ·Verizon FIOS	FTP server via Westell 9100 Hey guys, I have recently just opened up an FTP server on my PC to share pictures and movies with family and friends. My trouble is, I cannot seem to open the proper port to do so.. And I really don't wanna run my PC in DMZ mode off the router. Is there a better way of doing this?

Re: FTP server via Westell 9100

You are likely running into a problem with passive vs. active ftp.

You can try opening/forwarding ports 20 and 21 to the server, then make sure all the people connecting use "active" mode instead of passive mode.

If you're just sharing pictures/etc with family, consider a web server instead - or a sharing site like Flickr.

It just worked, had a linksys router at the time.. Thanks for the feedback at any rate Im not even sure if im doing this right: I want my ftp to use port 2132.
