Hi, i've problem with my firewall. i think that, it filter my outgoing packets. if i enable firewall in system-config-securitylevel, then a lot of my outgoing connections are filtered. for example: [user@comp ~]$ ftp 1.2.3.4 Connected to 1.2.3.4. 220 (vsFTPd 1.2.1) 530 Please login with USER and PASS. 530 Please login with USER and PASS. Name (1.2.3.4:user): user 331 Please specify the password. Password: 230 Login successful. Remote system type is UNIX. Using binary mode to transfer files. ftp> ls 227 Entering Passive Mode (1,2,3,4,43,196) ftp: connect: No route to host ftp> passive Passive mode off. ftp> ls 200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV. 150 Here comes the directory listing. (no reply for a long time) I have to use passive mode, becouse i'm behind another hw firewall. In FC2 i haven't problem with that. i was trying to search some informations on google, but i wasn't lucky. thank you for some advice. M.Holubec
