Title: RE: [FW1] FTP Reject: " reason: tried to open up other host port"
When I click on a link to an specific IBM FTP site (and one other site that I know of), I immediately get:
 
A network error occurred while Netscape was receiving data.
(Network Error: Connection reset by peer)
Try Connecting again.
 
The log shows only the outgoing request from my machine with no other entry.
 
When I try to go to the same site using FTP from an MSDOS window, I get:
 
C:\>ftp ftp.software.ibm.com
Connected to service.boulder.ibm.com.
220-***************************************
Connection closed by remote host.
 
Again, in the log I only see my outgoing request and no other log entries that refer to my address or the destination (either as a source or a destination).
 
I currently am logging everything.
I have Log Implied Rules checked.
No Nat being done at the firewall.
 
It appears, since there are no other log entries, that the reset must be coming from the firewall itsself.
If I put a machine on the Internet interface, the FTP works fine.
 
Any ideas?
 
I've checked through the archives and found what looked like the same problem but a solution was never suggested.
