I'm having a problem with client connect
With Serv-U 6.0. Some clients can connect others can't? Also I've been
e-mailing serv-u for support and they said my passive port is being
Blocked by something what I don't know. Tried Norton settings, zone alarm,
Allow internet, port forward on the router, changed ports on the router,
Could'nt connect at all and yes also changed ports for serv-u software
While doing this,can you help me out here been wotking on this for awhile now.And I'm on my extended trial don't want to buy if I can't get it to work. I connected using my neighbors PC (netzero) with no problem my friend also has netzero he could not? Also a friend with cable(comcast) could not?
Users have treid disabling firewalls also xp firewall and myself.
Now using port 21-21 ftp---22-31 for passive, got new message this time(Instant "FTP session was terminated).

Zone alarm personel
Winxp pro
Serv-u 6.0
Linksys 4 port router befsr41

I have a deticated line from router to server, thanks

Go to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 and have it do a portscan of "all service ports."

Make sure your FTP port is open...

Thanks ps142 I've been there before will try it out again thanks

Still having same problem?

Port was 20-21

Sounds almost the same set-up with no problems reported here. Could it possibly be the client?

That's my next try. I tried everything

All the ports you mentioned, even the passive ones, are forwarded right? All of them are also allowed by zonealarm too? What error message appears for the users that it doesn't work for? Options, Try turning off ZA and see if it works. Try setting the server as DMZ and see if it works. If either of the two work, it will tell you which is blocking the comunication. Make sure the Client also turns passive on his FTP software or they will connect but they won't see any files.

Yes I have dmz enabled also ports forwarded tried diff ports also, now back to original ports 20-21, like so

Serv-u 20-21
Pasv 2000- 2010

Dmz
Disable winxp firewall
Upgraded zonealarm will have to further check that out. All I see is local net admin. None for wan.

(message says; can't access file or folder be sure you have permission to access files and file name is correct?)

Check all settings for users and the are enabled for Dir and download rw so-on.

Sigh...

Running an ftp server under win xp == more trouble than it's worth

You need to take a look at your firewall logs (on the router), and see what's getting dropped. Can you connect (both passive and active FTP) from another machine on your LAN?

Yea my lan has no prob on all 3 pc's? I'm going to give this 1 more try I have only 4 days left for trial period, already extened <:0 so I got to do or die it's been a challenge though, learned a lot but not enough it seems. Going to try another software if not to bad love this software, ahh who am I kidding I'm not giving up!! Anymore help would be greatly apreciated.

If you want - I can set up an FTP on a 2003 server with Serv-U to see if you can access it? It might help lock down a few things?

Sure that would be great if it isn't too much trouble.
Thank you for your help.

Anytime - I'll PM with the info

Hey Cory sorry to not get back to you in a while I've been busy with
Work, I have my site up and running good now the problem was setting it
Up as serv-u requested, but my router didn't like it nor did norton or
Zonealarm so I had tp set rules in norton and zonealrm and let the
Router serve as host(DHCP) because I have work aroun through no-ip.com once
I got them all to play well it worked fine, thanks for your help and input,
gamer
