I am attempting to setup pure-ftpd and I am getting an error when I test from an external address using passive mode.
ERROR: Server returned unroutable private IP address in PASV reply
The issue is the Ubuntu server does not know it external IP address. How do I set this up. I checked /etc/network/interfaces and the external ip address is not displayed. How do I set this up?
I tested the ftp connection using http://ftptest.net and I get the following test log.

Make sure the server is configured to allow passive mode connections.
If the server is behind a NAT router, make sure the server knows its external IP address.
The range of ports used for passive mode must be opened in all involved firewalls.
The range of ports used for passive mode must be forwarded by all involved NAT routers.
Try uninstalling all firewalls and plug your computer directly into your modem, thus bypassing the router.
I also have a filezilla forum report on this.
