Subject: Re: [SLE] ftp through router problem...



I'm using a SMC Barricade router and passing port 21 to my SuSE box. I'm at
work now and trying to connect... I connect, it sets to passive mode, and
attempts to list directory but times out and never lists the directory. I am
definitely connecting but for some reason am not getting the directory
listing. Could I have the port that the "handshake" is using blocked? I'm
not sure...
