The way I do this is to edit the /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables file and
where it begins the section starting with case "$1" in modify it to look
like this:
case "$1" in
start)
start
insmod ip_conntrack_irc
insmod ip_conntrack_ftp
insmod ip_nat_ftp
;;
stop)
stop
rmmod ip_conntrack_irc
rmmod ip_conntrack_ftp
rmmod ip_nat_ftp
;;
restart)
# "restart" is really just "start" as this isn't a daemon,
# and "start" clears any pre-defined rules anyway.
# This is really only here to make those who expect it happy
start
rmmod ip_conntrack_irc
rmmod ip_conntrack_ftp
rmmod ip_nat_ftp
insmod ip_conntrack_irc
insmod ip_conntrack_ftp
insmod ip_nat_ftp
;;
Save the file and as root issue service iptables restart.
Note I haven't tried this with the port parameters others have been
talking about...but for the standard port this works great for me.
