hello abaghir,

I hope you are doing a nat for the ftp server to be visible on the public IP outside.. right ? or does the server have a public IP itself assigned to it..

If it is a natted IP, you cannot access the server through its public IP from inside. The public IP will not be visible from inside. from external network, you can see the server on its public IP. From inside, you can only ftp to the server on its private IP.

hope this helps.. all the best..

Thanks Raj for your reply...

Actually it's natted IP and that's why is not accessable from the inside network...
