Question: I was just wondering if anybody in this forum is running an FTP server on there home PC. If so, I would like some advice. Do you let your clients connect to the standard 21 ftp port, or do you have to choose some higher obscure port # so your ISP doesn't get too suspiscious? What is the max # of clients you allow to access your server, and what is the max download speed per client? Lastly, do most DSL providers even care if you run an ftp server? Even if you regulate every clients download to a reasonable speed? mlg400@blazemail.com
