FTP Server via Debian log in issue - Please help!
 

Hi there,

I have a new install of Debian with FTP server installed and running fine internally. When I try and access the server remotely, I can log in but it times out and says that "I don't have permissions to access or edit this folder".

If I try internally, I can log in with the same password, user name, and edit, transfer, anything....no problem.

My router is a linksys and I have ports 20, 21, 22, 80 opened and forwarded to the linux box.

Any suggestions. My guess it is the Linksys router not working correctly.

Dou you have DSL connection that uses a PPPoE or PPPoA protocol? Had a similiar problem, had to use router as switch (don't hook it into the WAN port) or get a router that can handle the PPPoE or PPPoA and set DSL modem in bridge mode.
