8 That's it. Now better make sure that you were right when you stated
9 your provider doesn't block it. BTW, if I as a provider had a no file
10 sharing policy, I'd definitely block Port 21. Maybe I would leave Port
11 20 open (ftp-data), but on Port 21 only the ftp server is supposed to
12 listen, not really the client.
13
14 The other clients are supposed to use whatever port you specify, BTW.
15 I'm using 50000-50400 myself, and others work fine, too.

17 If you want to know whether incoming connections reach your site at all
18 (not taking server software and firewall into account), run
19 "tcpdump -vvns 1600 dst port 21" (I guess it wouldn't reveal anything
20 at all).

22 You're not by chance behind a router?
