I have just run into a new problem with setting up an FTP server. All I
am trying to do is allow FTP access to the server from the outside. When
I try to login, and type ls, it reports:
ftp: connect: no route to host
I know the problem is because a nonexistent iptables rule, i'm just at a
loss as to what the missing rules should look like. The only thing
that is different in this case is that I need to use port 221 for FTP
instead of 21, and I don't see why this should require special routing.
ftp_conntrack modules are loaded. This is the relevant part of my current
firewall script.
