I can't even get as far as as the password. As a back door temp fix, I went in and now allow root to have remote ftp privs..but I would prefer this be a very temporary fix....I can telnet just fine...but not ftp. I've checked rc.conf, hosts, and group..and all appears to be in order...anywhere else I can look? I also have been unable to make my -stable box a gateway...following may FAQ's and list help....maybye these are related problems? Once I've solved these two issues I can stop rebooting into windows to run my proxy server for my other machines. I would hate to do a fresh install....time wise... Thanks for any help. Michael G.
