Re: using ip_nat_ftp

[jpiszcz <jpiszcz@lucidpixels.com>]

I have it statically compiled in, (may not be the most useful this way), 
but it works for me.
 From inside your lan, ftp gnu.org and port mode should work.
Keep in mind when you ftp somewhere the default is just to allow port 21 
(w/ connection tracker), if you want more ports, the module/kernel boot 
line takes arguments to specify up to 7 additional ports, so 8 ports total.
