it says this in the setup...

Code: #########################################
##                                     ##
##    SlimFTPd Configuration Script    ##
##                                     ##
#########################################

#
# Global server variables
#

#
# The BindInterface directive specifies which network interface should be used
# to listen for incoming connections. Available options are All, LAN, WAN,
# Local, or you can specify an IP address.
#
BindInterface ALL
If i wanna have someone from like another state of something connect to my apache server so they can update their website that im (hosting) for them, how might i do that. I tried putting my IP for BindInterface but it didnt work.. Any suggestions?... :roll:

What's the problem?

The ftp should run without you needing to change the BindInterface line, it's only optional if you want it bound to a specific interface.

All you should need to do, is check the slimftpd service is running and add the users you wan to use.

Well, as said before, just edit the bindinteraface line, replacing 'all' with your ip and restart the service, however it should work on the defaults. by default it binds to all devices it finds.

Now to your actual problem, do you have need for any special config to do on your network? ie, port forwarding? That would be my first guess

Secondly, have you tried changing the port? it's getting common for isp's to block port 21 along with 80 and a few others
