I am fighting getting an SFTP server open through my DSL router. Testing fails so far (using https://ftptest.net).

Hmm, localhost FTP works, but SFTP sends login message and client does not see it.

Aha. A protocol name mismatch! What FileZilla FTP server calls SFTP does not match WinSCP SFTP, but it does match WinSCP "FTP SSL/TLS". At least I have localhost SFTP (of sorts) working. But the firewall layers are still being obstinate. I never used this brand of modem with port forwarding before, and it seems to not work in any obvious way.

I will sleep now and try again in the morning. I am beyond too tired.
Why would you open a server on your router? On your personal internet connection for us to download from? That's just asking for trouble...
