iis ftp : Cannot setup second/third ftp site no matter what
running your FTP server on a port other than 21 - the NAT router can't tell that the traffic is FTP, and therefore doesn't translate the PORT command containing the client's internal IP address and port into an external IP address and port. Configure your client to use PASV instead of PORT - this is usually done by using a configuration switch that puts the client into using "passive mode".

Anyone know where to go from here?
I am running SBS 2003 Std, want to set up another couple ftp sites on different ports and I cannot. When I do and try to initiate, this is the error. Details: 200 Type set to A 500 Invalid PORT Command 500 'LPRT 6,16,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255,255,255,255,232,241,56,3,2,14,42': command not understood Please help! I have set microsoft article 555022, just don't want to initiate it because it is a large security hole, isn't it?
Oh, and yes, my first add-on ftp site is set to port 1040
1035-1040 open on hardware firewall.

The same reason as I posted earlier, but this time the NAT's afflicting the
server, not the client. If your server is behind a NAT, and is not running on port 21, the NAT will not know to change the internal IP address and port in the response to the PASV command. The two steps you have outlined below are necessary to make IE use active mode - the PORT command - to connect to the server. This is a general problem with running FTP servers behind NATs on ports other than 21 - most NATs cannot be configured to watch for FTP traffic on ports other than 21.

The problem is with the NAT being unable to recognise FTP traffic on ports
other than 21. Changing your FTP server will not address that.

Ok, got my ftp to work testing with ftp from dos.....
Don't understand why..... I can get to my site just fine from ftp in dos. If I try to use IE on XP Sp2, it fails miserably unless I "use folder view for ftp sites" and "disable" pasv in IE options. Can you elaborate why?

Just got home from work, not working, ready to give up
and start exploring much better ftp servers.
