RE: Allow active and passive FTP connections

root@p500:~# insmod ip_conntrack_ftp
insmod: can't read 'ip_conntrack_ftp': No such file or directory
root@p500:~#

- Insmod is when you load the module directly, there it would not work
unless you were in the _same_ directory as the ip_conntrack_ftp and you
renamed the ip_conntrack_ftp.{ko,o} ip_conntrack_ftp, then it would
work.

Otherwise, I do not see how you come to that conclusion.

insmod should do the job perfectly well.

NAT is very unlikely when the rules are running on the FTP server itself

(they're in the INPUT & OUTPUT chains).
