Try using the 'SAME' MARK/CLASSIFY target in a tcrule that specifies the ftps client's address in the SOURCE column. Note that this is yet one more reason to prefer sftp over ftps. Netfilter can't relate ftps control and data connections, so it can't transfer the control connection's mark to related data connections as it does with unencrypted ftp. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather who Shoreline, \ died peacefully in his sleep.
