I mut be doing something stupid, because I had this working a little while ago on another computer.
I am using a DLink DI-604 broadband router to split my cable modem between all of my computers. For a while I had one computer dedicated to just being an FTP server, using ServU. I configured the router to forward ports 20 and 21 to the proper IP address, setup ServU, and it worked perfectly. Well, the motherboard on the server died, I can't afford a new one, and so I installed ServU on my main computer. For some reason I cannot get it to work. Under the domains item on the left panel, I have my only domain, and when I click on that it gives a little info and whatnot, and says whether the domain is online or offline, and gives you the option to change the status. No matter what I do, the domain will not go online. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong as this worked brilliantly on my other computer. I mucked around with the router and made things even worse I'm afraid.
I have, as far as I can tell, TCP ports 20 and 21 forwarded to this computer, which I assigned a static internal IP address. I've done some other stuff, with Virtual Servers and Applications and whatever, but the DLink software is not very intuitive, and so I'm not sure exactly what they do. If anyone has any familiarity with the DLInk software as well as ServU and can tell me what I forgot to do or whatever, I'd be much obliged.
