ftp-data works fine for me.
Doesn't for me. I have to put the same line in the *client's* firewall and turn off passive to be able to connect. Does: FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_TCP="no" also have to be set to "ftp-data"? Thanks for your patience. Steve.
You shouldn't have to touch the client side firewall at all. That's the whole point of passive mode. It should be enough to set FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_TCP="ftp-data" on the server (and restart the firewall, naturally :). If that doesn't work there must be some other problem. You could try setting FW_ALLOW_INCOMING_HIGHPORTS_TCP="yes" instead and see if that works. //Anders -- 'Deserves [death]. I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death.
