FTP and my firewall = blocked
Posted: Sun Jun 04, 2006 3:53 pm
I can connect to several FTP servers via my Mac. I have Mac OS's firewall turned on, of course with the exception of port 21.
When I try to connect to a certain FTP server, I cannot connect. But I can if I disable the entire firewall.
I made an exception for port 20 and 1023 (that was a stab in the dark), but still no luck. PASV/no PASV has no effect.
The tech support at the shared host of the problematic FTP server can't/won't/don't know how to help.
Can you suggest any other ports to open in the firewall?
