Hey Chris:
Thanks for your response.
I am able to run the Abyss WEB server and the Pure-FTPD server with no
problem. According to our provider, they say that no ports are blocked.
I assigned a static IP address to the Mini at: 192.168.2.5 as my router is
at 192.168.2.1 and I port forwarded port 22 to 192.168.2.5.
Again, thanks all over the place.

Are you sure your ISP allows hosting servers? Some ISP's do not allow
hosting servers on residential accounts and block the ports from incoming
connections.
You might need a business account in order to host servers.
You do have the mac mini ip address reserved in the router? For example
192.168.1.115 always gets assigned to the Mac mini. your port 22 is port
forwarding to port 22 of the mac mini's ip address?
Also look in the settings for the ftp server for something called passive
mode and see if that is enabled. That is an option that helps with ftp
servers if they are behind routers.
these are just some ideas.

Hi Folks:
I am unable to SFT to my Mac Mini Server. I can perform the task from
behind my router; however, I cannot access the server from an external
source. I have Port 22 open on the router.
I do have the Mini's server software turned off; but I don't think that
that would make a difference since, as I said, I can sftp from behind the
router.
Sorry if I'm not making myself clear.
