Hey,
Anyone know a very very good FTP Server for Windows.
One with lots of features and etc. I had BulletProof FTP, but now whne i upgraded to 2.3.1 (or w/e the latest version is) (and.. i got it for free) it started to crash with this weird error.

So anyone know any good FTP SERVER, not client that i can use.
Thanks.

On the flip side, anyone know a good FTP server for Linux? I was happily using G6 BFTP in my Windows days, but I haven't found (actually, haven't even looked) for a Linux alternative. Any ideas?

Hello,
This is anoying me.
Okay, I forwarded port 20-21 for my ftp server, and in the ftp cilent i made it listen on port 21 (i can only make it listen on one port at a time).

Anyway, now if I open a folder (on windows) and login to my ftp, it works.
But if I use a FTP cilent it does't.. it connects but never logs in.
I did a port look up and this is what i got

The host X has a service running on port 21 (ftp).

The host X does not have a service running on port 20 (ftp-data).

Anyone know how to solve this problem?
Im using BFFTP Server

Don't worry. It's very often the case (always?) that you can't access your own FTP if you have a router. That doesn't mean other people won't be able to access it though, so fear not Smile

What worked for me is disabling passive mode in my FTP client. That way, I COULD connect to my own FTP. May or may not work for you, but either way it's a very common dillema. Give it to a friend to test and you should be fine. BFFTP is good that way Smile
