No Problem... Just map port 21 (assuming you are using port21) to your internal redhat box running the ftp daemon.
It is also called port forwarding. When a FTP request comes to your router over port 21 your router will forward that request to the internal machine you specify. Hope this helps. -Tom -----Original Message----- From: Kartik Trivedi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 5:05 AM To: irado furioso com tudo Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: NAT, Internet access and security hey guys, Any idea how can i run an FTP server behind a NAT. I share DSL connection with my roommates using a router. But i want to connect to my machine (RH Linux 7.2 which has an ftp daemon running) from outside. Any idea?
