Port 21 Issue
Having issues with a File Server (Virtual) which use Port 21. Doing a
"Shields Test" port 21 shows to not exist, which means it is stealth. This is normal if your firewall is running but mine is off. I expect the port to be recognized and the status should be closed. When I run my file server, the port should show open. Shields up test can be done he https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?rh1dkyd2 Program I'm running is: FileZilla 9.23 (free download). I've run this application succesfully on my other computer but this computer (I call my Test Computer), will not run properly run.. which opens the port 21 as a server. Are Port Assignments in the Registry somewhere? |

Port 21 Issue
Hello,
Is the PC connecting through a router (Also know as wireless access point)? If so, you will need to configure port forwarding at the router to forward port 21 to your computer - http://www.portforward.com -- Singapore Website Design http://www.bootstrike.com/Webdesign/ Singapore Web Hosting http://www.bootstrike.com/WinXP/faq.html Windows XP FAQ "JCO" wrote in message news:KfgWh.113$1M1.92@trnddc01...

Port 21 Issue
Thanks for your reply. Yes I'm on a router and the router is passing my LAN
IP thru port 21. I've isolated the problem, I think, to Windows Firewall. I can't seem to turn it off. I beleive it is blocking the port communication. When I bring up "Windows Firewall", from the control panel, it always shows the firewall as on. I try turnning it off with the dialog page. The off is selected, however, the firewall is still up. So I tried to pass port 21 as an exception. Again, it seems to accepted but when I do the Shields Up test (tests the ports), port 21 still shows as Stealth (mean the firewall is still blocking it). How can I get control of the Windows Firewall? I looked at the Services, but they seem to control all the interfaces (GUI) but not actually do anything about turning the Firewall off. Can you help me get rid of Windows Firewall? "SingaporeWebDesign" wrote in message ... Hello, Is the PC connecting through a router (Also know as wireless access point)?

Port 21 Issue
Hello,
Many routers have a security feature that will block all access from a computer once it detects a port scan. That might be a possibility. Try asking a friend to connect to your FTP rather than using the shields up. Yet another possibility is that the ISP is blocking port 21. Try using a different port number. -- Singapore Website Design http://www.bootstrike.com/Webdesign/ Singapore Web Hosting http://www.bootstrike.com/WinXP/faq.html Windows XP FAQ "JCO" wrote in message news:KopWh.567$nR1.319@trnddc06...

Port 21 Issue
All of these are great suggestions and I have already done all of them.
I've used another computer plus I've tried my ws_ftp program to access it. I have a friend that tried and it is still not working. Here's the clincher. My "Test" computer has pull out drive bays. I can pop this drive out and put another drive in that also has WinXP Pro. The second drive does not have all my programming tools on it. The FileZilla program works fine on this second drive. So it is not my ISP. I've been using this Virtual File Server for a few years so I'm very familiar with it. I'm pretty positive, the issue is with Windows Firewall .... that I can't shut it down. Is there something in the Registry that can help. I need to shut down Windows Firewall!! "SingaporeWebDesign" wrote in message ...

Port 21 Issue
I have done this. Then when I click Security Center (Control Panel), it
shows the Firewall is still running. And of course, my server, via port 21 (or what ever port I choose) still shows as stealth. When I bring up an ftp program, it still does not connect. My windows definitly must have something corrupted that deals with the Firewall. "SingaporeWebDesign" wrote in message ... Hello, Disable Windows Firewall.

Port 21 Issue
The applet won't come up because the service is not running. If I select
okay to launch the service, then I'm right back where I started. It shows the firewall to be off while Security Center is showing the firewall to be on. Technically, I would not know which applet is correct except for the fact that the website that tests the ports indicates Stealth and the fact that the server does not work. I'm am review an issue with Norton Worm Protection which seems to be similar to a firewall. No conclusions yet. Will review more soon. "SingaporeWebDesign" wrote in message ...

Hello, Many routers have a security feature that will block all access from a computer once it detects a port scan. That might be a possibility. Try asking a friend to connect to your FTP rather than using the shields up. Yet another possibility is that the ISP is blocking port 21. Try using a different port number. -- Singapore Website Design http://www.bootstrike.com/Webdesign/ Singapore Web Hosting http://www.bootstrike.com/WinXP/faq.html Windows XP FAQ "JCO" wrote in message news:KopWh.567$nR1.319@trnddc06... Thanks for your reply. Yes I'm on a router and the router is passing my LAN IP thru port 21. I've isolated the problem, I think, to Windows Firewall. I can't seem to turn it off. I beleive it is blocking the port communication. When I bring up "Windows Firewall", from the control panel, it always shows the firewall as on. I try turnning it off with the dialog page. The off is selected, however, the firewall is still up. So I tried to pass port 21 as an exception. Again, it seems to accepted but when I do the Shields Up test (tests the ports), port 21 still shows as Stealth (mean the firewall is still blocking it). How can I get control of the Windows Firewall? I looked at the Services, but they seem to control all the interfaces (GUI) but not actually do anything about turning the Firewall off.

Port 21 Issue
Okay, My problem is resolved to some extent.
The problem is with my Norton Anti-virus... Internet Worm Protection. I was able to turn this off, which then Windows Security shows my firewall to be off. Then my FileZilla Server ran just fine. The problem is that I can't configure my Internet Worm Protection to Exclude FileZilla. Something is wrong with the Program Control Button... Which crashes Norton. I'm not worried about this since I'm able to turn Internet Worm On/Off. I can deal with this just fine. Thanks everyone for your help. This was a great learning process and at least I now know that there is nothing wrong with my system or with the firewall. Thanks again....Issue Resolved. Yeah!!
