Configurate FTP Client for Windows 2008 Server
Hi,
I need to install a FTP Client at an Server of a company.
The server is already configured, there's a proxy server for connections and also the Windows firewall is active.
So I decide to test the connection I installed Filezilla but I get ever timeout it doesn't matter if I enter the IP or the domain name.
Also I tried to enter the IP of the server Proxy exclude list but also no connection.
I think there're some steps to do to open the port for a pas FTP connection however I need help for the configuration.
Can you please give me some hints what to to?
Thanks
Andre

And the FTP server is working fine when I try from an other system so it depends from the config of the client (Server) that FileZilla can't connect from ...

I've installed FileZilla Client but it can't connect to the server for any reason ...

I add an Outbound rule and allow as open port TCP 21 but also no connection will be possible ...

The FTP server is reachable from the internet as I've configured by myself but all other servers I've just remote access to.
So the FTP Server IP is 87.x and the server I've to install the client to is something like 85.x - when I've a look to the internet connection settings there's configured to use a proxy with the IP 212.x and port 8080.
I've not found anything that looks like a client software to configure the proxy ony the calues in the Windows Internet connection.
FileZilla verer return tihs:
Status: Connecting to 62.x through proxy
Status: Connecting to 212.x:8080...
Error: Connection timed out
Error: Could not connect to server
Status: Waiting to retry...
But 212.x:8080 are the right proxy settings as they're also given for the internet connection.
Also when I try to connect to any other FTP the problem is the same.
When I deactivate the firewall I also can't connect to any FTP - also I can't use ping, tracert etc. from this server the only protocol that works fine is HTTP.
The customer telles me that the proxy allow the FTP protocol but can it be that they make a mistake and is there mistake and FTP is blocked?
Can I check this out in any way?
