Re: [gentoo-server] ftp-server

Hi and thanks

I just discovered what was wrong. I thought i was going mad. That my isp 
blocked the port. I couldn't understand why the ftp port was stealthed 
when i scanned it at www.grc.com. So today when i took a better look at 
my router i saw my mistake. I was to open port 20-21, but in the router 
i had opened port 20 as private port and 21 in public port. In my old 
router this was the way. So it was routed wrong the whole time. I'm 
ashamed, i have looked so many times and checked the router, but i was 
certainly blind.

Thanks for the kindness
Martin
