Hi! Sorry for my bad English.
I use FTP server on port 1221. In PFsense 2.1 I configure ftphelper with option debug.pfftpports. But in PFsense 2.2 I can't confirure packet "FTP client proxy" for work with port differing from 21. Help, please! -
The ftp-proxy(8) daemon seems to only work properly with a server on port 21, so there does not appear be a way to accommodate that scenario at this time.

Whatever you do, don't use a vpn. That would be too easy…

Thank you very much for this package !! ;D
that should do the trick for some of my customers who are stuck with application that use "archaic" FTP Active client to update :)
Will try it in next maintenance 8)

Make an alias and put the alias name there.

Just wanted to thank you wholeheartedly for this package. I know FTP is 'discouraged' but sadly we can't always force these decisions on users when legacy systems are in place and working. This package has saved us a lot of headache.
bravo sir

Dear Jimp,
thank you VERY MUCH for this great package!
Is it possible to modify package and GUI to realize an explicit proxy environment?
Best wishes

Have an issue with 2 in-series PFSense boxes… the 2nd one is on a LAN (Opt1 on PFSense #1 / all traffic in-and-out for that LAN on WAN Virtual IP and NAT'd through to 2nd pfSense) and needs to get out to WAN for Active FTP Session. If I set the 2nd pfSense FTP Client Proxy to WAN external address it won't connect at all, but if I set it to default (WAN - which is actually LAN going to Opt1 in first pfSense), it connects but will not open data port.
Hope this make sense - any ideas?

Not that I'm aware of. If you need an explicit proxy, I believe that squid can handle that.

I use it here with multiple boxes in series and it's OK but I don't use VIPs or send it out an alternate WAN (just the default WAN at my edge, not my second WAN).
When using load balancing or multi-wan, the FTP traffic (including high data ports) would have to exit the default WAN or the proxy won't work correctly.

I've been banging my head against a brick wall trying to get an old FTP client to work properly. Thank you so much for your work, I appreciate it.

This package is for FTP clients using active mode behind pfSense.
