Aim running a small ftp server for personal use but I can't get it trough pfsense. I tried searching the wiki page for some help but couldn’t find my answer

What have I done so far
ftphelper enabled
Forward port 21-22 to my server


running pfsense 1.2-RC2

Any help is appreciated

First: update to 1.2 release

Did you read this: http://devwiki.pfsense.org/FTPTroubleShooting ?

First off, FTP will only work on the primary WAN until someone finishes pftpx-routeto integration. It is also NOT currently working in load balancing situations

So aim ****** (aim using a dual wan setup)

guess ill need to set up a sftp server

thanks for the help

What i would do:

1: Disable the ftp-helper on all interfaces.
2: Define a port-range on your ftp-server for the data-transfer.
3: forward port 21 and your data-transfer-range to your server. You can do that for each WAN.

After this you should now be able to access your server from both WANs.
--> A friend is running his ftp-server like this right now.
