>From a colleague working on our RHEL 6 deployment (similar to F14/F15): root # vi /etc/sysconfig/modules/ip_nat_ftp.modules #!/bin/sh exec /sbin/modprobe ip_nat_ftp root # chmod +x /etc/sysconfig/modules/ip_nat_ftp.modules Perhaps you should also start using the new name, nf_nat_ftp (although its alias, ip_nat_ftp, the previous name, still works).
