I still recommend WinSCP (see Sourceforge) if they want a GUI tool on
Windows. FTP sends passwords in the clear with no security at all, and it
is even MORE important to protect your customers and your server than if it
were just anonymous users.

The FTP server can also work with SSL so i will enable this function. So no
more plain data is send. This will make the server secure enough i think. I
posted the latest firewall conf already but there is one question remaining:

With a port scan with nmap -sS TCP SYN ip-address. Every port will give
"filtered" is it possible to hide the port totally so no syn will be
returned by the system.
