robin801 · 02-03-2003, 04:34 PM

this is what is happening so far.

i just installed serv-u and smartftp.

i can not get a connection on smartftp.

i have zone alarm and a linksys router befsr41.

i used "ftp.mp3.com" as the domain name.

i assigned an account login name and a password and set account admin privilee as "group"

i have port 21 open(or so i think)

in "pasv port range" i put 2000-2010

i put a check in "block FTP_bounce attacks and FXP"

in "allow passive mode data transfers use IP" box blank

allow passive mode data transfers and allow MDTM command to change file date/time both have a check in the boxes.

what other changes do i have to make to serv-u?

what changes do i have to make to smartftp?

what changes do i have to make in my router?(running latest firmware)

thanks for any help.

robin

btw---these two systems also have file/print sharing enabled.

i am able to see shared drives on both systems.

robin

still working on server

i think my problem maybe with my host name.

i get this error when i try to use smartftp----

resolving host name

unknow error

connection closed

what would be my host name?

i thought all i had to do was type---ftp.mp3.com.

came accross this---

http://www.linksysftp.org/tcpip.php

i did everything in this tutorial and still no connection.

just wanted to update you on what i have been doing. i changed everything back to the way it was before i started messing around with the settings.

back to waiting for help.
