Use passive ftp or add a firewall rule to allow all incoming traffic from
port 20 (ftp data port) to ports 61000-65535 (the masq data ports).

The first is more secure as it blocks port scans originating on port 20,
the 2nd way requires less thought on the part of the user.

PS This is FAQ and as such coverd (in some depth) in the Firewalling
and IPMasg howtos
