[ale] Masquerading and ftp

[Ken Nagorski]

Hi there,

Did you compile in (Or create a module) for CONFIG_IP_NF_FTP

If you read the "help" In the kernel src it says 

"Tracking FTP connections is problematic: special helpers are required 
for tracking them, and doing masquerading and other forms of Network
Address Translation on them."

>  Any ideas how I can fix that?

> Thanks,

But I don't want to go among mad people,
Alice remarked.
Oh, you can't help that, said the Cat:
we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.
How do you know I'm mad? said Alice.
You must be, said the Cat,
or you wouldn't have come here.
