XPerties Posted March 9, 2002 Share Posted March 9, 2002 I need to have a friend be able to connect to my server while Im gone to maintian it. Im behind a router and not sure why its not working right.I can connect VIA remote connection but Im behind my router. Now he will be at his home meaning he wil need to get to my server. On my main PC i have DMZ host enabled and on my server I have port 21 forwarded.Now do i need to change anything to allow him to connect. We have tried and its saying wrong password or user but hes using the same password and user as I use all the time. SHould I change that DMZ to my server or what? This is very important as I will be gone for weeks. Please assist in any way.-XPertiesBTW i posted this here knowing it to be in the wrong section but it needs special attention within 48 hours.

MSNwar Posted March 9, 2002 Share Posted March 9, 2002 I don't know for sure cause I never tried it that way. Your setup is more sophisticated than mine. I dial into my server using WS FTP 95 PRO. Others also use my user name and password or I change it online through my ISP. I did have a problem with a firewall enabled at one time. Disabled the firewall temporarily to update the site and it worked.MSNwar - The FatMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAH Posted March 9, 2002 Share Posted March 9, 2002 check the block WAn request setting and yes i think you will need to set the DMZ to your server IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
