FTP server on XP

1. Install Filezilla Server.
2. Start up the default server at port 14147.
3. Set up groups, users. Name, password, folders and privileges. Set up connect, upload, download preferences.
4. Change the ftp port from 21 (being used for ISP in XP) to, e.g. 1025, and it may use 1024=1025-1.
5. Write the IP address in passive mode preference panel, if the server is behind a router.
6. Use self defined outgoing ports in passive mode preference panel, such as 5000-5020.
7. Manually write all ports used as Firewall Exceptions in Control Panel of XP. (Note, XP does not support open a range of ports.)
8. Forward relevant ports in the router, e.g. 1024-1025, 5000-5020.
9. Test using Filezilla Client. Both local IP, and external IP, on the Windows machine and other machines. Close Firewall if needed in debugging.
