I am having problems connecting to an ftp server through my local
winroute pro 4 machine. I am in contact daily with the administrator
of this server and he has noted that he is behind a firewall but has
had no problem connecting to it from other sites except one. I
previously was able to connect to the same FTP before the
administrator installed a different firewall. This FTP is on the
standard port(21) and also uses MD5 (whatever that really means). The
problem is that I cannot get a list of the content and eventually get
a socket error. I do technically connect to the server and can
actually get messages from SYSOP to verify connection. I have read a
few posts that mention NAT..I am not familiar with a lot of these
terms just yet (at least not enough to be 100% comfortable). Winroute
on my end is basically only forwarding ports, DHCP, and acting as DNS.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
