Is there any way to access FTP from outside and inside without the need to change the masquerade setting and without Filezilla at the same time? Personally I use Filezilla on my laptop so it's no problem for me. But I would like to give an access to the limited part of my FTP to the guests. I do not have control over what FTP client will be used by guest(s). At the same time I want FTP access for me from both outside and from inside of my LAN. Please, any ideas how to configure my ReadyNAS Duo v1 or my LAN in this matter.

Getting it to work with any FTP client outside the LAN requires you to set the masquerade to be your external ddns name.

On my network, FileZilla will work inside the LAN even if the masquerade is set that way (and if I connect using the external ddns name). That behavior might be router dependent - it works because "inside" packets that are addressed to my router's external address are still forwarded according to my port forwarding rules.
