This is one of the three netfilter modules that will not self-load when called so I 
can see why you want to do this. If you run a shell script to setup your iptables 
firewall, just add something like the following (stolen from Firestarter) to near the 
top of the script:

if ! ( /sbin/lsmod | /bin/grep ip_conntrack_ftp > /dev/null ); then
/sbin/modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp
fi

will load it for you. Then again, if you aren't afraid of unused modules lying around 
in RAM, then you can just bulk load all your netfilter modules at boot (hide your 
eyes; very ugly) by adding this line to your rc.local:

/sbin/modprobe /lib/modules/2.4.13-ac3/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/*

Substitute your kernel version, paths, etc. as needed. Adding it to /etc/modules.conf 
would not get you anywhere.
