Hi,

I'm having a strange problem where I can access my FTP-site from outside my LAN. But when I'm on premise I can't connect.
Below tou can see the outcome. It connects fine, checks the cert., logs in with the right credentials, wants to load the folderlist and then nothing... :-/

Code:
Status:	Adres bepalen van ftp-lan.website.be [b]=> URL checks out fine[/b]
Status:	Verbinden met 192.168.1.28:21... [b]=> internal IP of the FTP-Server[/b]

Opdracht:	LIST
Antwoord:	150 Opening BINARY mode data connection.
Antwoord:	550 The network connection was aborted by the local system. 
Fout:	Ontvangen van mappenlijst is mislukt [b]=> FAIL[/b]

I set up my FTP site with the correct data and control ports. I also opened them on our firewall.
External connection is not a problem. I did see that I needed to insert my wan-ip on the FTP site for the Firewall section... so I did and everything works.
Now it also shows, when entering Passive Mode, that it uses that wan-ip even when connecting from within the LAN...
I guess that's where it fails and breaks the connection.

How do I solve this?
I already tried creating a secondary FTP-Site on the same port but with a different hostname. didn't work...
Am I overlooking something?

Kindest regards and thanx for any info on the subject.
