I'll give that a try, but I have one NIC in the machine and I thought
it was already bound that way. How should the other be bound? This
machine is connected to a Linksys hub, and the hub is a downlink from the
router, which is downstream from the DSL Modem. There is a second machine
on the LAN which does NOT do any serving at all.

IIS is not installed, but the drive that I've dedicated to FTP is
formatted as NTFS.
> Do other protocols work for you from outside at all?
FTP is the only outside service I prefer to run, other than ICQ on the
second machine. Everything else is standard net usage, Mail, News, Http,
etc. But I do work with a few TCP/IP apps over the net with my friend, and
we're able to connect with them fairly easily.

Yup. SP2 with current hotfixes in place.

If I FTP by name or internal IP from the other machine it's fine.
I've telnetted out to a virtual server I have and tried FTP back in and it
acts as I described.

Man, this totally esscaped me. I'll check these users out and see
what they are set to. This may be it.

You've helped a great deal. I'll check this tonight and report back
what I find.
Thanks. I appreciate it.
