Hey guys, trying to set up ftp here. The situation is the following:

I have plugged in the DNS-323 on a network run by a Dell server running windows 2000. I set up ftp on the DNS-323, but nothing so far. It looks like all the computers come out on the internet with the same ip address, as I tried it from www.whatismyip.com. Inside the network all the computers, including the DNS have their own ip addresses. I tried both the inside and outside ip address with port 2121 (random), but nothing. Do I have to go in the server and change something? If yes, what?

You have a NAT router, it shares a single public ip address amongst all the internal hosts - you need to forward the port you are using to the DNS-323's internal address.

I suggest you test for access from within the network first and don't even think about the remote access until you have gotten local access.

the ftp works great within the network, just tried it. Where do I forward the port, in the dns-323 or the router? I dont think I have access to the router.

it has to be done in the router, there will be a section call port forwarding, that's where you want to do it
