I got the file transferred using TSClient (ugly) and it's working as a web server, but I would like to be able to perform other, very simple basic server functions with this box.
So please, anyone, how do I accomplish the most basic, simple, easy task of opening up port 21, or any other port for that matter on Windows Server 2008 R2 Web Edition? 2 NICs, one to the local lan in the rack, one connected to the Internet. Nothing special about it, clean, out of the box Windows Server.
IIS, installed by the Wizardly Wizard, works just fine on port 80. There is no external firewall, Linux machines in that rack using the same backbone do not have any issues.Īll the instructions I find online do exactly what I have done in terms of opening ports but they simply do not work, the port does not open. So what's the secret to opening up a port? I'm just thrilled that we now have six levels of firewall rule priority, really I am. It has always been rather poorly implemented anyway.Ĭreated inbound/outbound firewall rule for the executable.Ĭreated inbound/outbound firewall rules for port 21.Ĭreated rule to allow ALL traffic between the two IP's I want to use for transfer.ĭesperate I enabled file/folder sharing and created a share.Ĭan't turn off the firewall temporarily as the server is located miles and miles away and that kills RDP. Hours go by, I give up on Microsoft FTP service. I can connect to myself using ftp so the ftp service is there, and responding (from CMD ftp IP it works) Port 21 is not open on the server as reported by several port scanners.
