Hey there,
You might want to look at using the stateful mode of the firewall ... so it would look something like this ... you can add interfaces and destination IP's if you like.
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 21 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 21 -m state --state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
You can then use the "RELATED" state to allow traffic for port 20 instead of creating new rules to specfically allow this.
Cheers
Mark

Subject: WuFTP server with Iptables.
Hi all,
I am setting a FTP server with Iptable firewall.
Here is the rule, which I get from www.openna.com.
# incoming request
iptables -A INPUT -i $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE -p tcp \
--source-port $UNPRIVPORTS \
-d $IPADDR --destination-port 21 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -o $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE -p tcp ! --syn \
-s $IPADDR --source-port 21 \
--destination-port $UNPRIVPORTS -j ACCEPT
# PORT MODE data channel responses
iptables -A OUTPUT -o $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE -p tcp \
-s $IPADDR --source-port 20 \
--destination-port $UNPRIVPORTS -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE -p tcp ! --syn \
--source-port $UNPRIVPORTS \
-d $IPADDR --destination-port 20 -j ACCEPT
# PASSIVE MODE data channel responses
iptables -A INPUT -i $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE -p tcp \
--source-port $UNPRIVPORTS \
-d $IPADDR --destination-port $UNPRIVPORTS -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -o $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE -p tcp ! --syn \
-s $IPADDR --source-port $UNPRIVPORTS \
--destination-port $UNPRIVPORTS -j ACCEPT
However, I still cannot connect from my house (behind ADSL router/modem) to
that site.
Stop this firewall, the FTP server work well.
Please advice me about this.
Thanks in advance,
Jari
