Nope, this doesn't work either. After spending the last 24+ hours
messing around with this, I've learned at least one important thing. It
seems that all ports over 1024 aren't being forwarded. I set up oftpd on
my desktop system (behind the firewall) and set port 21 to be forwarded.
Everything works fine. I set oftpd to run on port 6346 and then set port
6346 to be forwarded, and the request never makes it to my desktop
system. Now the only problem is figuring out why this is happening and
what to do about it. As always, any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
