extended passive FTP blocked Hi All, Concerns: VPN-1/FW-1 NG R55 Problem: extended passive FTP blocked by firewall Symptoms: The client initiates an FTP connection (from port X to port 21). When the client issues the 'ls' command, the server asks the client to enter extended passive mode. At the mean time, the server indicates a high port number Y to be used. The client initiates a new connection from port X+1 to port Y. This last connection is not recognized and is dropped by the 'cleanup' rule. What has been done: Allowing FTP or FTP-pasv or FTP-dir or FTP_mapped or FTP_port in the Rule Base does not help. The port Y is not included in the table called tcp_services, and anyway option 'allow data to all defined services port' is checked. Any help appreciated! Thank you, Jeanse |
