I encounter some ftp access problems recently. I've a server-U behind a linksys NAT router in my home providing file sharing with my friends. My router forword port 20 and 21 to the ftp server(this settings are from linksys support page).

I find those users who have routerable ip can use flashfxp access my ftp server by no pasv mode only, and some users behind a firewall can not access my ftp server at all. I tried to connect to connect to my ftp server from a pc using ms proxy, only dos prompt ftp can perform upload and download, the other ways always timeout when listing directory after successful login.

Anyone can explain the reasons for me and how to access ftp server with two firewalls at each side?
