Right, Im getting pretty frustrated with this lot already.
Ive registered with dyndyns.org via the link you provided above, set up an account and filled in an 'account form'. Done all the email reply malarky business etc beforehand.
Ive installed Serv-U ftp server program and followed its setup instructions, providing a login name you must have to access the folder/server I have allocated.
What I dont understand is:
1) what somebody needs to type to see my folder - I filled the form in but cant see it anymore. I assume its in the following format "myftp.dyndns.org" and not "myftp@dyndyns.org".
2) where does this info go in my program setup? It asks for/is suited for a numeric adresss....
3) when I try and look at eg *
ftp://myftp.dyndns.org in my web browser I cant get through....or is it *ftp//myftp@dyndns.org - either way it doesnt work. Even when I 'login as' my password name I setup in the FTP program.
4) upon filling in the 'account form' of my name I want to use via dyndns site - it did it, but kept returning to a log in box for the dyndns site straight away - so has it done it (processed the details)?
My Serv-u program settings for 'Domain' tab include:
Name:
Domain IP address: (which wont allow the full length of my dyndns name/address)
Domain Type: "Store in .ini"
Security: "Normal FTP - No SSL/Tsl sessions"
Port Number: 21
Enable Dynamic DNS: (off)
Im lost now, and pretty demoralised.
Thanks
Sirius.
