Proxy / Reroute Data Help

[Ascii]

I have created a program using the winsock control to allow people to login on port 4000. Once a user connects my program connects to a network ip address on port 21. All data sent and recieved is sent throgh a middle socket.

The program works fine on my computer with no problem.. But If i have someone on the outside trying to get in they always have problems downloading the FTP List. My program logs them in fine with no problem but is unable to send them the FTP List correctly. It always times out.

My program works fine with other ip addresses as well as the network one. Please help me If you have any suggestion please e-mail or icq on this matter asap

Thanks

Ascii,

Sounds as though is a firewall/acces problem. Verify the remote users can successfully conncet to your machine and then onto the remote server on port 21, also try using a single socket rather than multiple sockets at the same time, if you want, send me the code and I can have a look at it for you if you want...

Cheers

No its not a firewall / access error. The computers connect fine and both login to the ftp server. The problem is just downloading that list for some odd reason.
