FTP Problems

I am trying to setup a ftp site. I managed to get it working on my home lan but will not work over the inet. I don´t know if my dsl modem has anything to do with it because I read somewhere that I need to enable some stuff?. I have installed the Internet information service software in windows xp (´cause thats what I´m using) and it created inetpub directory on C:. In there is ftproot directory where I copy the files I want to share with other users. When trying to connect I get a error message saying that I could not be authenticated or the page could not be found. Please help its getting annoying <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_frown.gif">

if you only want to setup a straight up ftp site why not use a program like <a href="http://www.guildftpd.com">GuildFTP</a> instead of the troublesome IIS. but what really matters me is how you tried to access you site in the net? <IMG SRC="images/forum/smilies/icon_cool.gif">

 going underground is really not bad as long as you keep your head above the ground.
