I have my domain, jeremythegeek.com, forwarded to my ip:888. Is there any way to subtract the number to get to 21 for my ftp?

What do you mean "subtract the number?" If you want to serve your FTP server, just forward your IP at port 21.

but you can't forward to an ftp, only http. I want to do like jeremythegeek.com (which is port 888) minus 867=21

So your saying in the forwarding box, you would type "jeremythegeek.com:888-867" and hope it works?

(I'm a little confused).

Ok. I see you use ZoneEdit. Why do you use WebForwarding instead of normal DNS entries? If you do, just going to ftp://jeremythegeek.com will bring up your FTP server.

Then here is my solution: Keep the web forwarding option for your HTTP site, and under the DNS A Name, create an entry for "ftp.jeremythegeek.com" to point to your IP.
