Re: passive ftp

["IT Clown" <iptables@mailbox.co.za>]

Sorry i left out something about the following rule:
> -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth0 -o ppp0 --dport 20 -j ACCEPT
> -A FORWARD -p tcp -i eth0 -o ppp0 --dport 21 -j ACCEPT
> -A FORWARD -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT

When i set the rule i can connect to passive mode ftp
servers but when it needs to list the contents of the ftp
server it will list nothing or i will get disc from the ftp
server.
