Trust me - post in the solwise forum. You'll get an email quite quickly I'm
sure :-)
Once you set the rule - BTW - you have to commit it to keep it. Rules are
same for any other server, just alter the port and target machine :-) (and
increase the rule number)

I take it you have discovered if you try logging into a web server locally
you get the router admin page :-)

There is an issue with the router and messenger but it mostly affects file
transfer (basically - you cant). Ive got it working fine for messenger use
(as far as I know).
Can't quite see exactly what you are trying to achieve.
You would have 1 rule for forwarding port 80 (http)
and another rule to forward port 21 (ftp). This would allow the outside
world in (there is an additional default rule already in place that allows
you out)
This should allow http & ftp from the wan side of the router (public side).
It WONT work from inside the LAN. I'm not clever enough to say why or how.
An extra rule could probably be created that would allow you in.
What is the exact scenario you are trying to create?

When I buzzed out of the hive I heard booooiiing@bounce.com say...
(not the server) that I cannot FTP, when I try to connect to an FTP
site, (ie F9) it either hangs or cannot resolve hostname

Ah - me see - you need (roll the drums) another rule to allow outbound ftp
(i'm guessing here - should already be able to do it).
Try getting into my ftp server @
81.174.224.81 (user and pass = buzz) I'll kill the account in the morning.
I can then let you know if I get any activity inbound

except I cannot get into my own FTP, its resolving to the wrong IP, (The
one I had when I was on the 3com) I may have set it wrong on the router

Of course I do - I've posted the details in a public forum!
Think you are there. The next stage that will make you cry is SECURING the
router. Try this tool:>
http://grc.com/default.htm
And go to sheilds up - gives a basic idea of how safe/secure it is - make
SURE you at least change the password. This then creates a whole new ball
game.
There is a good article on stealthing out unnecessary ports but if you
follow this you need to add firewall rules to let http/ftp through in
addition to the nat rules.

Glad you got it pretty much sorted :-)

OK, I have put ***** where the problem starts. This is the OLD local IP
address, it should be 192.168.7.200
I have corrected my hosts file, Outsiders can get in, and, as you see, I
can get in until that point, then it all goes belly up! The router RDR
rules are correct. I am stumped!

Are you trying to get in on a machine on the same network? Or from a
different machine not connected to the router in any way?

I have a feeling I read someplace that you need to address it as localhost
inside the network (127.0.0.1) but I can't find where I read this. Ive
popped into the solwise forum and asked the guru for you :-)
