Question : Cisco Pix 501 allow ftp

Ok, I have looked at other topics, cisco docs, and google like a mad man but this is stumping me. I am fairly new to configuring cisco pix so I think I must have made a simple mistake.

I want to allow ftp access from any outside address to a host on my internal network.
Quick facts:
PPPOE works
Outbound access works
Cisco Pix 501 6.3(3)
Outside address is dynamic assigned by ISP via pppoe (ADSL)
I see the cnt rise on my access-list rule and the ftp connection on the remote end does not error and will remain "connected" until I cancel it.


Here is my config:

Answer : Cisco Pix 501 allow ftp

is it possible that your ISP is blocking FTP inbound? Many Broadband ISPs do.  Why don't you enable syslog from the pix to the server.

go to: www.syslogd.com and download (free) kiwi's syslogd. Install it as a service on your server and config the pix to log to it. See what the pix is saying about it.
