I'll have to try it.  I'm using SmartFTP.  Freeware, but not open 
source.

The man page is a bit ambiguous, but it looks like you might need to 
fully specify the file name in order to give options:

/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp.o ports=21,210

OTOH, it may work fine as you did it.  Another option is to list the 
module options in /etc/conf.modules, adding a line:

options ip_masq_ftp ports=21,210

The stock kernel and ip_masq_ftp module are all you need to support 
masqed *clients*.  You need the port forwarding and FTP server patch 
only if you will be masqing a server.
