Hello,
I'm setting up FTP/SSL to access a server behind a NAT/PAT router.
I managed in the end to set up the connection using :
"advanced"/"connection" /"use NAT IP / Address".
But I have to enter the IP address in plain ie : 213.223.215.58
whereas in the the site manager I entered for "Host / IP / url" the dyndns.org adress and it works for the 1rst TCP session (ie port 21).
Even if coreFTP is the best FTP client enabling that, before starting a transfer I have to ping my dyndns.org url and enter the correspoonding IP address in the box : "use NAT IP / Address", prior each tranfer set up
(it's not a static IP address : it may have changed).
=> why not allow url in names for "use NAT IP / Address". ?
=> or alternately remember in a context the resolution of the name in the first place.
I'm a telecom person I can cope through its not practical.
but for instance my sister could not do that and with this slight modification a non technical person, like my sister, could use fully coreFTP
