To make this permanent beyond a reboot include it in 
/etc/sysconfig/iptables-config, e.g.
IPTABLES_MODULES="ip_conntrack_ftp ip_nat_ftp"

In this example ip_nat_ftp is also included because my system is a 
gateway supporting nat'd workstations connecting to Internet servers 
using both active and passive mode ftp.
