/* HINT: Search archives @ http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ before posting! */ Hi, I am using RedHat 6.0, kernel 2.2.5. I have setup ip masquerading for all port/proto and portfw for ftp. Sample setup: ipchains -A forward -p tcp -s internal_net -J MASQ ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L external_net 21 -R internal_host 21 At first all seemed to work until attempting to connect from the outside to the internal ftp host using something like Netscape browser. At this point it seems that the ftp server sneaks a packet passed the masquerading and thus the client (browser) tries to continue the connection with an un-masqueraded ip address. Strangely ftp clients using active mode work ok! Any insight welcome Thanks PaulB. _______________________________________________ Masq maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Admin requests can be handled at http://www.indyramp.com/masq-list/ or email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] PLEASE read the HOWTO and search the archives before posting.
