My network consists mostly of Windows PC's. Since I've put the firewall in place, they have been unable to use ftp to retrieve files from the web. I have tried cuteftp, ws_ftp and microsofts ftp clients on these windows machines. I have set them up to use passive , but the firewall settings in these clients don't make sense. What do I need to do to safely let my Windows users use ftp to retrieve/put files on the internet ? I can't update all the pc's to FreeBSD, at least not yet. thanks for ideas, Darryl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
