but, once I have loaded contrack ftp modules and I want to permit ftp client connections from my private subnet, which is behind eth1, to Internet through eth0, I should do: iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -p tcp --dport 20:21 -j ACCEPT is it right? I am sorry but it is not long time that I'm playing with iptables and firewalls...:-) thanks, fabrizio. > > Also, enable ip_nat_ftp module and ip_conntrack_ftp! > > Salu2 > Mely > > > On Wed, 2005-08-31 at 15:07 +0200, Fabrizio Sannicolo' wrote: > >>dear Sir/Madam, >> >>I have a linux box (sarge) as router/firewall in my organization.
