I have a Cisco WRT610N v1 with EKO build 18946 on it. Everything seems to function correctly except I can't get my ftp server to function publically. All other port forwards work fine. I installed 'optware the right way' and setup proftpd with my domain name as well as the passive ports. When I test it locally everything works fine, but from the outside it doesn't work. I tried forwarding the ports from the GUI as well as IPTABLES to no avail. Any thoughts?
I managed to make it work by using the built in FTP Server instead, copying my config file from the ProFTPd install on optware over and killing the process and letting it restart. For whatever reason that one allows me to connect.
