An Internal address in an External world.

I think it's simple. Or at least I thought it would be simple enough for a quick Googling. Alas, I have spent far too many hours on the Google search results. No answer can be found. I am sure someone out there knows how this is done and it is not me.

I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 setup with IIS7 (or7.5?). I have setup a FTP site with exceptions for ftp in Windows Firewall. Ports and external address is setup. Works internally but doesn't externally...within Windows Explorer. From what I have narrowed down,

Windows Explorer wants to connect as passive, won't and disconnects. FileZilla will try and fail, connect via Active. I want Windows Explorer to work for ease of access from clients. As you can see, my external IP address is used to connect but the server is returning a local address and thus Windows Explorer fails.

FileZilla Log:

How do I change the address that is returned in Passive, so Windows Explorer doesn't hickup??



Thanks in advance.
