Hi and thanks
I just discovered what was wrong. I thought i was going mad. That my isp
blocked the port. I couldn't understand why the ftp port was stealthed
when i scanned it at www.grc.com. So today when i took a better look at
my router i saw my mistake. I was to open port 20-21, but in the router
i had opened port 20 as private port and 21 in public port. In my old
router this was the way. So it was routed wrong the whole time. I'm
ashamed, i have looked so many times and checked the router, but i was
certainly blind.
Thanks for the kindness

Subject: [gentoo-server] ftp-server
Hi
I have a little problem with my home server. I cant connect to my ftp
server from the outside. I usually use a anonymous vsftpd or proftpd
server. Since my computer broke and i bought a new motherboard and cpu
and newly installed gentoo system, i can't connect to my ftp server from
the outside, only from my own lan.
My httpd server works, my sshd server works perfectly. I have a d-link
router and firestarter as a firewall, as before. When i scan my computer
with namp the ftp-port is open, when i scan it from outside my lan, it
claims the port is closed. When i connect from the outside i got only a
connection refuse. Exit the firewall make no difference.
I have looked around with google but with no luck. I have the rest of
the computer configured as before, and all is working except the ftp.
Can it be some kernel configuration? Do anyone have any suggestions?
Martin
