Hi! Is it possive to allow active (as opposite to passive) ftp connection using ipfw rules? I put my local network behind a restrictive firewall (everything is denied by default) and now i must form allow rules to allow ftp connections. For passive connection everything is ok (client connect to server on 21, servers tell where to connect for data, client connect to server on that port) but for active connections server must connect to client on the port that client told the server. I think I understood ftp protocol right. I cannot imaging ipfw tules to allow the second (active) case. MAybe someone has done it?
