I have 2 questions, and please send a copy of any reply to my emial as i might not remember this site if the answer takes a while =)
1st: My Mandrake 8.0 is blocking high ports for my win2k computer !
Linux is gateway and win2k uses mandrakes "internet sharing", but if i want to connect to a ftp on port 2000 i cant, its blocked ! But i can connect to port 21, but not use passiive mode as it is on port 1000 something ! Maybe its linux firewall that does this, but i have a running ftp on port 2100 on the gateway (linux)and it works really good !
How do i check if its the firewall or maybe something else? Im a really Linux newbie !
2nd: When i transfer from a Linux hosted FTP i get strange files.
If the file im d/l is 15 000 000 bytes, it will be something like 15 129 289 bytes on MINE HD !
How come?
Please e-mail me so i know i have got a answer !
Thanx in advance !
