Actually, you probably need a ftp tracking module installed into the kernel; ftp has two ports, the command and data port. The command port is 21, which does things like initiate transfers and list directory contents, etc. It also sends a random number which pertains to the port number for the data port. Now that I think of it, this usually matters much more for the clients, I'm not so sure of the server. Anyone wiser than I (it isn't hard)?
Don't you also need port 20 open for ftp?
