It's a router issue not a server problem. Your router replaces the private by its public IP in the server response on port 21, because this is the default FTP control port. Many cheap routers don't even do that on port 21. If the router would try to search and replace the IP string in FTP data comming from any port it would slow down network speed notable. Maybe it's possible to setup your router to do the same on a different port as well? --- Arno Garrels [TeamICS] http://www.overbyte.be/eng/overbyte/teamics.html > Thanks > > > > Arno Garrels wrote: > Sounds like the router exchanges the private IP by the public IP in > the server response on port 21 only.
