Re: IIS 6 FTP Cannot logon externally

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

You should be able to connect via ftp.exe if windows explorer works.
IE 7 ftp connection is not working for isolation mode, use windows explorer
instead.
For FF - see if you can set it to active mode.

An additional piece of information. When connecting using a VPN, I am
able
to connect to the FTP site using windows explorer. I fail when using both
IE7 and Firefox.

Still no luck making any headway connecting directly from the outside.
Still getting connection closed by remote host when trying to connect
using
ftp.exe.

I recently created a new FTP site in isolated user mode using active

You re prompted for a user name and password and after successful
authentication you are directed to the appropriate folder.

Externally, I cannot seem to logon. I have tried everything including
logging on from a command line interface. At first I get a connected to
host
message and then after a period of time I get "connection closed by
remote
host." If I use IE as the client I get a web page cannot be found.

If I create a VPN tunnel first and try to connect I get a different
message.
It says "cannot connect to server 426."

The firewall is set to pass both ports 20 and 21 to the appropriate
server.
I thought for certain that after creating a VPN tunnel I would be able to
access the site without issue just as I had internally, but that did not
work
either.

Is there something more that the firewall needs to pass in order for this
to
work? Any help is greately appeciated.
