I took me about a year to gather all the components for my home server, now it is finally mounted in to a closet in my kitchen (picture below). I now run a AMD 2800+ with 1 GB Ram with Windows XP SP 2. In order to make the whole thing more useful than just big hard drive I installed XAMPP and set up my router so it would forward the http:// and the ft:// port to its IP.

I installed Xampp on my Server machine and while the http was working fine the filezilla ftp access showed very odd behavior. After screwing with the problem for several hours i finally realized that the solution was quite simple.

Solution:

Disable your windows firewall, or open the ftp port 21 and you will be fine.
