Passive FTP

[Leovino A. Trinidad, Jr]

Hi! I'm setting up a passive ftp in a firewall. I've tried different scripts related to this but still I couldn't have it work. Error received, ports not known. I know it's all about nat/redirection and I'm not that good at it...anyway, can you help me on this?
