Hi all,

I'm using the load balancer functionality from pfSense to split our traffic to 2 different WAN lines. This works very good so far.

Since 1.0-release I have troubles with ftp traffic. Connecting to a ftp server and executing commands over the control port 21 works without any problems. But as soon as I execute a command that needs a ftp data channel, I get troubles. Often the ftp connection simple hangs, no directory listing comes back. The problem is that many ftp servers do not accept data channels from a source ip that is different to the control channel.

No problem, I thought, I simply configure a rule that makes sure, that all ftp traffic is routed over the same wan line (no load balancing). But since the source- and destination TCP port of such a data channel is choosen by the ftp server and is "something beyond port 1023", I do not have any idea how I could do this.

Has anybody an idea?

Thanks
Patric
