Perhaps your active ftp client is using high port to high port
connections for the ftp data channel.
As a test, create a firewall with your standard masquerading
rule, a default policy of accept, and the ip_masq_ftp module loaded.
If the ftp connection works now, you're probably blocking the ports
necessary to carry the data.
What ftp program are you using on the client? Try using a few
different programs and see if any others work. If using winxx, see
www.winfiles.com for some more clients. If using Linux on a client box,
try command line ftp, ncftp, gftp, or Netscape.
What kernel version are you using on the firewall? 2.0.38 or
2.2.13?
Cheers,
- Bill
