I now think I was using the wrong IP address to try to connect - I was
using my public domain name, which means access from ouside the
firewall.
If instead I use 10.0.0.2 I get a staright: connection refused.
Do I have to tell vsftpd to listen on a special IP address? Shouldn't
10.0.0.2 be equal to localhost on the host OS? I have -net nic -net
user specified.
Or maybe I have to configure the router to forward ports 20/21 to the
host OS. Not sure how to do this at all.
