hey
i only got port 5050 open for incoming connections on my computer and got no outgoing ports
so my only choice is use port 5050 for PASV connection
between connections (file downloads or dir listing) it takes about 2 minutes for the port to timeout so flashfxp can use it again
is there any way i can shorten that time ?
thanks

I assume you mean PORT? Since PASV is an out going connection.

There's no way to shorten the timeout value from FlashFXP, this timeout is set by the OS.

if that was the case you wouldn't be able to connect to any website or to any ftp server or to anything else
