Unhappy time out ftp


I had this configuration:

2x win2k 1x linux slackware --> router --> modem --> internet

I didn't work to configure the nat but i could connect to my ftp on my linux internaly.

Now i changed it to:

2x win2k --> router --> linux slackware --> modem --> internet

Now the thing is that my webserver is working (people can enter my webpages throught my internet ip) i opened port 80 in the nat config of my modem and when ik type 192.168.2.104 (ip of the linux machine) i can browse throught my webpages internaly.

But when i wanted to open port 20/21 for ftp it didn't work. The biggest problem of all is that i can't even connect to my linux internaly. It did work with the first set-up.

Every time i try to connect i get connection time-out

It sounds like a firewall issue to me. First see if the port is open at all from the win2k box:

telnet linux 21

If it's not open at all, you are going to need to do that, something like:

iptables -A INPUT -p TCP --dport 21 -i eth1 -j ACCEPT

#change eth1 to whatever side you want it to come in from.

You should also make sure that you have the ip conntrack modules loaded:

insmod ip_conntrack
insmod ip_conntrack_ftp

Also, check out the logs to see where the packets are getting stopped.
