That's why you're having problems with port-mode FTP. But passive-mode
FTP should work just fine, which is what the web browsers are doing.
Your firewall (if you have any) might be blocking some of the
connections, though.

When you build a kernel, you normally build the base kernel with "make",
and then build the modules with "make modules". Then you install those
modules into /lib/modules with "make modules_install".

Nope; it's just assumed that it needs to be built if you configure IP Masq.
