Hi friends, I am Samuel, a new member of the Forum. I am blind, but well I use the BSNL service, broadband. I use it pretty well, but I am interested how I set up a FTP server.
I know some port forwarding etc must be done, but dont know how to do it.
since I have BSNL 500C+ and hence need some suggestions, I'd like to set up the server for the night after 2AM.
I am using XP.
and since I have set it up, for PPOE, in bridge mode, and hence need to know, how could I do it.
I've used the functions of scheduling etc, and I know all of it, but dont know, how to work with setting up a server.
if anybody could come forth and help by a good explaination, would be really helpfull.
Oh my modem is UT300r2u.
and please let me know what information is required.
Thanks
Sam.
Hi,
I don't know whether you are still following this or not but still
do the following
1.Disable the bridge mode ask your isp to do it for you
2.In your router/modem config. page (you can find your router/modem ip by typing ipconfig in cmd, or ifconfig in terminal) goto virtual servers or port forwarding and chose FTP or enter port 21 save and reboot your router/modem(if you have both modem and router forward in both)
3.If on windows allow port 21 in firewall, if you use any anti-virus allow port 21 in it also
4.Now install any ftp software like filezilla install it and configure it to your needs(username, password, directory etc)
5.If you are using dyndns or no-ip whatever download & install it the desktop client.
6.So let me assume you have set up with dyndns.org and your domain is domain.dyndns.org now browse to the etc folder in your os in windows it is 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\' there is a host file in this file do the following in a new line
:21ftp.domain.dyndns.org or domain.dyndns.org
For Example
192.168.1.2:21 ftp.domain.dyndns.org
|
LAN IP of comp. running the ftp server(you can find in router config page or frm cmd)
Now you can access by
host:ftp.domain.dyndns.org
username: (which you set up in filezilla)
password: (which you set up in filezilla)
Hope it works!
