any suggestions would be great. i have a restrictive ipfw ruleset that works great.. it only allows incoming connections that i allow and outgoing connections allow. i have a list of ports that i let my users go out on: 80, 22, 143, 443 etc etc.. All the stuff they might need to do. how can i handle passive ftp though? i can let 21 out, but when the remote ftp server says use this x high port.. i block that because it's not in my list. so what can i do to get around this.. not totally familiar with it, but is this what fw_punch is for within nat?? thanks, ajt.
