FTP server using passive ports
Hello everybody. This is more of a network-question than a readynas one. I've just recently bought an Ultra 4 in an addition to my Duo. I've had, and still have the FTP service running at the Du...
Btw, I just had an idea. You might have suggested it, but if so, I've overlooked it :P
I just forced filezilla to use active mode instead of passive mode, and I deleted the port forwarding rules on my router.
I connected to my external IP / DNS address with my specified active port, and it went through without any problems. Gonna test this at work tomorrow. If this works, all I have to do is define that filezilla will have to work in active mode, and I'll have both my NAS'es available.
I'll give you an update tomorrow. Guess the problem lied in the client :P
Hopefully it'll slip through the corporate NAT / Firewall
