Hello List, I'm trying to connect to any outside FTP with a aktive ftp conx type from a client behind the supposed firwall but that doesnt work, only passive is allowed. I understand the basics with in/output and forwarding, all my supposed sercies are working in and outgoing, from my firewall i can connect aktiv or passive ftp out and vice versa but not from the client behind.
It doesnt matter if I allow all new connections to input or forward, the only difference is that ftp_data is not appearing in the log anymore ????, the ip_conntrack_ftp module is loaded.
Does anybody discover the same problem or has a fix/sample for this case ???
Many thx i adv Matthias Krauss
