Ok, so i'm trying to get me an FTP for ease of use sake up and running again. I've acquired Serv-U (which actually seems perfect for server use apart from i'm still running a 30 day trial). It runs as a service and uses a nice local web front end. Anyway, as far as i can tell i've set up users and pointed them to the folders etc...

I'm only using the SFTP or FTPS connections (yes i'm trying both) but for some reason unless i'm connecting within the network (192.xx.xx.xx) it won't validate my login details.

I've got dyndns set up (alexdoddedinburgh.dyndns.org) and i've tried port 990,21,22 and implicit/explicit secure connections, and SFTP with FireBug. But for some reason its not having any of it. I've definitely forwarded the ports and everything should be working ok, but it isn't, what the fudge should i be looking at next?
