I do receive 'Connected to Server, waiting for Welcome Message', but no connection is ever established. I'm not sure what to put into the 'Port' field, although I've tried the default 14147, 21, 3390 (listening Port of home PC), but nothing works.

Username and Password fields are populated with the Windows 7 Home PC Username and Password. Hackers will constantly scan the internet for hosts listening on port 21, tk default Serveer port.

Along with configuring the user s with a strong password, there are a few settings within FileZilla that the app microsoft teams can configure to further secure your new FTP server. In Filezilla Client, I'm using the Static IP address (208.xx.xx.xxx) in the 'Host Name' field. Now we need to assign the user permissions for this repository. Because of this, I feel the client software is already configured correctly. My own home router has Port Forwarding enabled and set up correctly.įrom the domain, Filezilla Client has already been used to connect to 3rd Party software vendors with whom I must transfer/received files occasionally. 3390 is the listening port of the computer on which Filezilla Server is installed. Each computer on my home network has its own listening port as I need to access different home computers while away from my home on business. This home router handles DHCP for my home network.

This home computer is behind a public Static IP Address: 208.xx.xx.xxx on an AT&T modem that is set in 'Bridged' mode to allow traffic to pass through to my own Linksys/Cisco router. I've installed Filezilla Server on a Windows 7 home computer.

I've installed Filezilla Client on a Windows 2008 server behind a Fortigate firewall which protects our domain.
