catman915 Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 I have installed a D-Link Dir655 router and connected two PC's each having it's own BulletProof FTP server installed. I have setup the two in Virtual Server with public ports of 6000 & 6001 respectfully. I'm using "CuteFTP" for a client and would like to know what the syntax is for addressing either Server? My IP is "69.66.218.208". If I set the Pub Port to 21 everything works fine but when I use a different Pub port I can't gain access and I don't know how to include the Port number into the address in my client. I was told before I purchased the router that I could access either or both servers using this procedure. Would appreciate any assistance. Thanks Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Welcome to the forums catman915 I would start by checking the D-Link web site looking for how to configure the router to forward ports. Quote
catman915 Posted December 5, 2008 Author Posted December 5, 2008 Welcome to the forums catman915 I would start by checking the D-Link web site looking for how to configure the router to forward ports. The router is configured. The problem is that I don't know how to address the ftp request to a specific port. The public ports are either 6000 or 6001 in the router. I need to be able to tell the client to connect to one those ports at my IP. Quote
OJB Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 This may be a completely incorrect thing to say, not sure about FTP ports etc but does this not work: 69.66.218.208:6000 I know things like SSH access use that sort of syntax for ports and IP addresses. Quote
