Hello Fabiano,
You should check if your FTP client uses active or passive FTP. One
of those protocols will randomly select a connection port (unfortunately I
don't remember which one does that, off-hand) It may be that all you will
need to do is change the FTP client type.
A good number of FTP Clients allow you to change this setting.
Hope this helps,

Subject: FTP Outgoing - random port incoming
Hi All,
�
Does anybody knows why when I try to FTP anywere, loggin on my FW, I saw a
packet coming from port 20 (remote) to a randon port on my FW....
�
But there is anything very strange occurring.....I can authenticate on FTP
Server....but when I try to get a list (ls or dir or something else.....)
simply the server give me a packet on a random port....so my FW blocks!!!
�
Is it right or not? If right, what I have to do on my fw to permit this
packet traffic?
�
Thanx,
�
