Filezilla server cannot detect external IP for passive FTP Fix

Set the "Retrieve external IP address from" setting to:

http://www.etcwiki.org/ip.php


retrieve external ip address from

Setting up Filezilla server with passive mode and external IP seems to be flawed. If you select retrieve external ip address from and use the default setting, it always displays the incorrect external IP as the loopback address 127.0.0.1

Use custom PASV settings if you are operating the server from behind a NAT router or a firewall. In that case, the IP address of the server is not accessible from outside of the router, so you should fill in the correct address here. Use the port range to limit the number of ports that will need to be forwarded through the router.


Default - Filezilla IP Finder (broken?)
Shows 127.0.0.1 ALWAYS for me-- DOES NOT WORK

Alternative "retrieve external IP address from"
Hosted on this site, just displays the external IP of the user, nothing else.
THIS ADDRESS WORKS WITH FILEZILLA SERVER:
