You might want to look at the thread I started yesterday:
ftp daemon problem
I got some good help there from Barry Brimer.
I did a bit of research on the 'net and discovered that my firewall (I
use the "kiss" firewall, it's available on the net and is a front-end
for creating a netfilter firewall using iptables)...
... was attempting to load:
ip_conntrack_ftp.o
which no longer exists; it's been renamed:
ip_conntrack_ftp.ko
So I changed one line in the kiss firewall, to load the right file, and
presto, ftp works fine in both active and passive mode.
Thanks, Barry, for leading me in the right direction, and I hope this
helps you.
