Actually, upon looking at this again, the "pftpx" application is running with 
arguments of -c 8021 and -g 8021 and then the LAN IP address. How does it 
know what ports it supposed to use? Im using standard 21 and then 30000-35000 
for the data ports, im going to do some more in depth research on the pftpx 
application as well. Or am I totally confused as to how this works?

I have just rebooted, and upon reboot im still getting the LAN IP, and still 
nothing.

Thanks
Brad
