I'll try looking for modules. Blah. You understood what I was getting at. ;-) Use passive ftp mode in whatever client you want. Just make sure you've either loaded the ip_masq_ftp.o module into the kernel, or that you've compiled it monolithically into the kernel. If you don't have either, you can manually add entries to the 'ipmasqadm autofw' table to auto-forward passive/active requests across your firewall. Look into the documentation on IPCHAINS-HOWTO [1], IP-Masquerade-HOWTO [2], the docs that came with ipmasqadm [3], and perhaps the ipmasqadm developer's website [4]. Of course, this is all going to change when Linux moves to IPTABLES and true NAT.
