I've got a VPN between our v6.3 and v7.306 firewalls.
Let's call them location 6 and 7.
I have a rule on both ends allowing FTP traffic from a server in 6 to a server in 7.
However, PF log in 7 shows dropped packets on port 20 going back to 6.
The NAT FTP helper is enabled, but since the VPNs aren't NAT'd, that's probably irrelevant.
I've changed the FTP service def on both ends to have the DEST ports 20:21.
I've temporarily added a rule to allow 7 to make port 20 connections to 6, and the packetfilter drops have cleared up, although the FTP connections still aren't working fully.
What is the proper procedure here?
Passive mode doesn't seem to be working either. Admins say that the FTP server needs ports 21000-21100 for PASV, but none of those are showing as dropped, and tcpdump on the ftp server doesn't show those ports either.
Thanks,
Barry
