Hi
I installed Mandrake9.2RC2 with shorewall firewall and was having problems
making ftp transfers.
After some investigation I determined that the problem was that shorewall
wasn't loading the ip_conntrack_ftp kernel module although that module was
listed in /etd/shorewall/modules.
The reason why the module wasn't being loaded is that the kernel module is
compressed in a file called ip_conntrack.o.gz and shorewall was searching
for a file called ip_conntrack_ftp.gz
The patch bellow fixes the problem:
