Title: Syntax for addressing FTP with Public port of 6000?
Post by: catman915 on December 04, 2008, 12:47:45 PM
I have installed a Dir655 and connected two PC's each having it's own BulletProof FTP server installed. I have setup the two in Virtual Server with public ports of 6000 & 6001 respectfully. I'm using "CuteFTP" for a client and would like to know what the syntax is for addressing either Server? My IP is "69.66.218.208". If I set the Pub Port to 21 everything works fine but when I use a different Pub port I can't gain access and I don't know how to include the Port number into the address in my client. I was told before I purchased the router that I could access either or both servers using this procedure. Would appreciate any assistance. Thanks

This just something that you can try, on the address bar of the browser type the public IP followed by :6000 or :6001 respectively.

For example: http://69.66.218.208:6000 and http://69.66.218.208:6001

If you have two virtual servers with one mapping public port 6000 to private port 21 and another virtual server mapping public port 6001 to private port 21 for the private IP of each computer, I think that would work.

Thanks for the reply. We tried that and it didn't work.

I think you mean ftp://69.66.218.208:6000 and ftp://69.66.218.208:6001 here.  That should work from a web browser window.

Yes I did mean to put ftp:// instead of http://. My bad, thanks for the correction  ;D
