Hello all, After the upgrade to OpenSuSE 11.4, i have some problems with the clients using FTP behind the firewall. My firewall loads this modules: modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp modprobe ip_nat_ftp And before the upgrade, no problem at all. Now, some strange problems: sometimes the passive connections works, sometimes not... Here is an example: root@web1[~]: ftp ftp.unina.it Connected to ftp.unina.it. 220 ftp.unina.it NcFTPd Server (free educational license) ready. Name (ftp.unina.it:pss): ftp 421 Disconnecting you since you didn't login successfully within 15 seconds. ftp: Login failed. ftp> exit root@web1[~]: ftp ftp.unina.it Connected to ftp.unina.it. 220 ftp.unina.it NcFTPd Server (free educational license) ready.
