RE: [FW1] Restrictions of FTP data connection by FW1



Title: Restrictions of FTP data connection by FW1
Both are "enabled".  I tried to edit "base.def" by following "phoneboy's" instructions but that didn't work either.  The code apparently had some errors in it (wasn't successful in debugging it).  I also created the following rule:
 
Source        Destination        Service            Action
internal        external             ftp-high-port    accept                        where "ftp-high-port" has the following in
                                                                                                   match field:    tcp, dport >= 1024, dport <= 65535
 
Should I modify this rule so that instead of internal I have outside-firewall-interface?...
 
I was a bit confused so just to cover all the bases I created another rule for testing purposes with reversed Source/Destination.
 
I am still not able to establish a data connection form any of the internal boxes but when I try to FTP from the actual firewall itself, everything goes okay.  How come the firewall is not having any of these problems?
 
Thanks

Make certain you have the following selected in Policy---->Properties----->Services
"Enable FTP Port Data Connections"
and
"Enable FTP PASV Data Connections"

I have discovered that my FW1 is blocking ftp data connections.  I do not have any problems with the control connections but when I try to retrieve data from a remote host, that return connection gets blocked by the firewall.  How do I resolve this?

Many thanks

Keyvan
