FTP Port change question

[Guest webmaster@repairresource.com]

Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Service pack 2

 

 

I want to change the default FTP port in IIS. Whenever I do I cannot

connect. I am behind a firewall but I know have the ports forwarded

correctly because when I put the port back to 21 on IIS and the

firewall everything works fine. is there an extra step I am missing

to change this port?

Re: FTP Port change question

 

Can you telnet to the new port on the local machine?

 

try : telnet localhost [new port]

 

See whether you get a successful connection to MS FTP Service. If so then

make sure firewall rules allow the new port in and out of the network and

port forwarding is configured for the new port.
