Hello all,

I would like to run an ftp server at home. I have a ADSL connection with a
router and an IPcop firewall. My ftp server will be running on a Windows
server.

I don't want to have to use PASV transfers as my users will often be using
web browsers rather than actual ftp clients.

How can I tell IPCop to correctly handle PORT ftp transfers to a LAN IP
address?
