Hi, what do you think about proxy-suite from SuSE? Ciao ;-) Robert Azman Salleh wrote:
I got similar problem last time. Found out that I had to let through port "ftp-data" as well as "ftp". I think they are ports 21 and 22 respectively. My original firewall config only let thru port "ftp", that's why I could connect to an ftp server, but could not get a dir listing.

I've now learned a lot of security-wisdom and that the SuSE-firewall 2 is
a
damned good tool (something I already knew). But my problem is still unsolved. For any reasons ftp-masquerading doesn't work. I tried what Ralf recommended, but the two iptables-commands didn't have
any
result (okay, maybe they had, but they didn't enable ftp-masquerading). I also looked for the modules ip_conntrack_ftp and ip_nat_ftp as GertJan told me. I had no luck to find the first one anywhere on my system
although
the FW-Packe is installed. The second one is there and I did an insmod,
but
this also didn't solve the problem. Ah yes, Lars pointed me to an error I made. Of course I didn't install my system from the crab, but from the scratch. Funny to image a crab with SuSE-Linux tied on the back :-) To Roman: Of course you are right, but as I already mentioned, I have to live with DAUs in my LAN, and it's hard enough to have my phone actually ringing like hell because this damn ftp doesn't work. By now I only answer "I'm working on it and I'll send a message to all users when it's working again..."; but to imagine to have to explain all users what
FTP-passive-mode
is and how and why it must be used, is as hard as to imagine that my mother-in-law is going to stay for more than one week (one week is bad enough, but more will ruin my nerves *sigh*). I really don't know which
one
I would prefer if I had only these two choices...
Anyway, could someone help me in solving my problem ? I'm sure out there
on
this list are lots of iptables-freaks knowing nearly all tricks one can do with it and it should be no big problem for them to find out how to enable this ftp-masquerading.
Thanks in advance
Stephan
