I'm actually got a similar setup. Fedora Core 1 behind a linksys befw11 router. do you allow other inbound connections to your server; email or ftp? If so do they work? The connection refused message makes me think your linksys is denying the connection, also I see your coming from tampabay.rr.com, which I believe it A Road Runner cable modem connection. Road Runner is notorious for not allowing "server" on their network and _might_ be not allowing any inbound connections to your IP. Could you check you linksys configuration? look at the forwarding tab (assuming your linksys is like mine) and see if it is allowing inbound connections on port 21 On a totally different note I see you said you got your Netlock Linux VPN client working. I've been trying to get it working my self. I'd love to talk to you about how you got it to work with Fedora Core 1. -- Gunnar vS Kramm San Francisco, CA GPG public-key -------------- http://www.gunnarkramm.com/keys/gkramm.gpg
