Im banging my head off my keyboard here.

Does anybody have a secure server solution to offering ftp for clients without opening a crap load of ports for pasv mode? This is the only way I can get ftp to work is to open a crap load of ports on my server for pasv ftp. Using active mode for clients is out since most routers wont let the server return with a port #.

I tried the ssh with sftp route but I dont like giving clients list privs for the directory or folder that cygwin is installed in.

should I just give up on ftp altogether? :shrug:

But Cygwin is a fine solution. Isn't that hard to set up, and can be locked down neatly.
