I am running FileZila FTP server. My OS is XP Pro. I set up a group and then a user within that group in Filezilla and assigned the same folder privileges to both the group and the user. I had someone try to connect to it, and he said that he connected but that he didn't get any directory listing, and he got the error message "can't open data connection". I did a little research and read that FTP sometimes needs more than just port 21, and that passive mode users sometimes need a different port range as well, so I set port ranges 20-25 and 5000-5100 on my router to forward to the server machine. I then had someone else attempt to connect from the outside, and the same kind of thing happened to her but she got a different error message "An error has occured - please make sure you have permission to open the folder". I am stuck now. Does anyone have any idea what's causing this? If you'd like to try to connect yourself, it's
