I'm attempting to use ftp for the first time on my FC4 installation, and
it isn't working. I log in okay and can do things like change
directories, but if I do anything that should result in data being sent
(ls, put, get), it reports that it's entering passive mode and then
waits ... and waits, until it times out.

`modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp' will solve your problem.
To have that module loaded automatically, add it to IPTABLES_MODULES in
/etc/sysconfig/iptables-config.

I tried that command, but it turns out that the server I'm trying to
connect with does not allow passive ftp.
I believe that now what I need to know is how to configure my firewall
to allow active ftp connections with this server.
Any help on this topic?
thanks,
Bruce
