I'm trying to enable incoming FXP packets on my
system. I've enabled port 21, and my users can
initiate the FXP, but iptables proceeds to drop the
actual transfer packets(and I've noticed it looks like
FXP ports are random).

#1, is this true? OR is there a port range I can
enable?

#2 I've noticed the netfilter package has fxp support
built into the ip_conntrack_ftp and ip_nat_ftp
modules, I'll assume this is for outgoing only?

Thanks!
