I have a feeling my DSL router is blocking external ftp and http accesses. here is some info:I am using Apache 2 for my http server on my desktop Guildftpd for the ftp server on my desktopand no-ip to provide me a hostname, eg: "blah.myftp.org"whenever I do "http://localhost/" on my desktop machine I can access it after authentication but whenever I do "http://blah.myftp.org/" I keep getting an authentication prompt again and again even when I have entered the password and username correctly.similarly when i do "ftp://localhost/" in Internet Explorer I gain access to my ftp server but when I do "ftp://blah.myftp.org/" I dont get any response at all!Do I have to port forward or enable virtual servers for http and ftp access? I tried setting up virtual servers with the following settings:Status: EnabledName: Virtual FTP serverprivate ip: 192.168.1.2 (desktop's internal ip)Protocol: TCPprivate port: 21public port: 21Schedule: AlwaysDid the same for the http server
