Connecting to an NSLU2 from the internet

[itxweather]

Hi,

Can anyone advise how to go about connecting to a Linksys NSLU2 from the internet. This is by all accounts a feature of an NSLU2 but i've not been successful in finding documentation on this.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Best Regards.

Enable the ftp server on the NAS, and if you have a Router open ports 20-21 associated with the IP of the NAS.

The principle of how to connect to the NAS?s ftp server through the Internet can be picked up from this page: http://www.ezlan.net/myip.html

It's actually a HTTP server on the LinkSys.

As Jack said, you need to forward that port's traffic to the ip of the Linksys via your router if you have one. And.... port 80 will work for http.

I could be mistaken... but I believe this thing only does HTTP access over the internet.

I have one.
