Can someone help me set up a FTP server?
I followed an online tutorial I found for setting up a FTP, but it only works with computers that are networked to mine.
Heres the tutorial, its a screencapture: FTP Tutorial and when outside users try to connect to my ftp they get this error: Error Im not sure what Im doing wrong...can anyone help? |

are you behind a router? if so, you will need to forward port 21 to your local ip address. then when other people try to connect, they use your wan ip for the ftp host
