Hello everybody, for my home network I have built a Linux-based firewall (based on the slackware-built 2.4.21 kernel). The firewall is working fine, except for large FTP downloads. After 13.68MB (sometimes a bit more, sometimes a bit less, but most of the time 13.68) the connection just hangs. The control channel is still active, because I can abort the download and start it again, but it never gets beyond 14MB. I have tried this with multiple servers (ftp.kpn.be and ftp.slackware.no), multiple local computers (two Slackware-based, one Debian-based) and multiple clients (ncftp and lftp), and the problem returns in all situations (even when downloading directly to my firewall machine). I strongly suspect the firewall, but I can't imagine what I have done wrong (especially because a very similar configuration based on the same framework at my work does not have this problem). TIA && Gtnx Marcel de Boer PS. Please also Cc a reply to me, because I am not on the list.
