Common problem with ipmasq and ftp, that issue comes up every couple of weeks
to months on the ipmasq list. Fred Viles "Fred Viles <fv@EPITOOLS.COM>"
has written a patch to ipmasq_ftp module that is supposed to cure this, but I
haven't tried it myself. Sorry don't have a url for you.

It is in the ipmasq howto, I am suprised Robert didn't put that info in the
book. The patch has been around for at least a year...

some reading

have a look at the "[masq] FTP and firewalls" thread
