Re: ftp/scp port forwarding

Seems to me like you're running an http/https/ftp server behind NAT, and
you want to make it visible to the outside, correct?

http/https are not a problem in this scenario.

ftp on the other hand... well, for a "dumb" NAT-ing firewall, if the
data port is not set to 20 during the session, your forwarding rules
will not apply.

But Linux is not dumb, iptables knows the FTP protocol and it can do
smart things.

Make sure you're loading the ip_nat* and ip_conntrack* modules on the
firewall. I believe it's enough to load them and only forward the
command channel (port 21); the purpose of the ip_nat_ftp module is to
figure out the parameters for the data channel and mangle the packets on
the fly.

Edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config and add:

IPTABLES_MODULES="ip_nat_ftp"

Or (less elegantly) "modprobe ip_nat_ftp" in rc.local

That should be enough. Or so i hope.

If that doesn't help, have a look at Pure-FTPd, it has config options
for exactly this scenario.
More specifically, you can try -P to specify the public IP address (your
ftp server has no clue what's the public IP address, hence it doesn't
know what address to return in passive mode).
Or use -N to force active mode.
