Hello:

I'm having an issue with using FTP through
an IP Masq box with ip_masq_ftp installed
from Win2K boxes.

I can make the initial connection to an FTP
server without any problem, but when I try to 
download anything, 90% of the time the FTP 
client does not give the prompt back right
after the last of the data is received. A
command line client like what MS includes
in Win2K, usually gets the prompt back in
about 60 seconds. Graphical FTP clients just
hang permanently.

This happens in or out of passive mode, but 
not on the firewall box itself.  It's as if 
the ftp-data connection to the client isn't 
being shut off by the firewall when the FTP
server closes the connection for it's end.

Does anyone have a clue stick for me?
