The vpn server will be at home.
I and others will connect to it from the outside.
All the ports and other router settings are set according to what I've read here and elsewhere.
I can make an ftp connection from the outside using ftp from command line or an ftp client like CuteFTP. but I cannot get a directory or list of files, just a connection.
When using the Connectoid I get a server not responding error.
When I first set up the connectoid I incorrectly put in the private IP of the server 192.168.xxx.xxx and I could get a connection buts thats all, just a connection.
When you are setting up routing and remote access on the vpn server do you use the same private IP range as your d-link router, which is 192.168.xxx.xxx or the 10.xxx.xxx.xxx range?
I suspect my problem may be a combination of router settings and server setings.
