      No, there is no way to accommodate policy routing or use any WAN but the default gateway, the ftp-proxy daemon is not capable of it.

        Thanks for your fast response. I get it.

        Anyway, In our case an option just the opposite to 'Proxy Bypass: Destination' (something like 'Proxy Use: Destination' - and bypass every other IPs) would do it. I drop it just in case you are looking for new features to add in the next release  ;)

        Thanks again.

        Regards from Barcelona,

        Jordi.

          Hi,
          I have a problem with the FTP Proxy package on pfSense 2.2.2.
          I opened a thread about this problem: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=113899.0
          Thanks!

            Thanks jimp for this Package!

            i had trouble with an external ftp connection.
            installed your package and it worked right out-of-the-box!

            thanks a lot.

              Is this package compatible with 2.3.1-RELEASE-p5?

              Best regards

              Steve

                Yes, it is. If found in package list, then it's compatible.  :)

                  @jimp:

                  Make an alias and put the alias name there.

                  Thanks in advance. :) :)

                  I try. I made an alias with two Ip and put the name in "Proxy Bypass: Destination", restart service, but it doesn't works.

                  EDIT: alias works if declare IPs like a "/32" network, but not like single host. :)

                  Did not worked for me but a workaroud is to create a NAT rule per destination on port 21 and tick the "No RDR (NOT)" option to bypass the proxy.

                    Hi All,

                    I am facing an issue where I cannot get my clients(on WAN side) to connect to FTP server (On LAN side). I have installed the ftp-proxy and also included the conntrack and passive rules to the ftp server. Whenever I try to connect via Filezilla it disconnects right after the PASV command.

                    Below is the network:

                    3750 Switch (WAN) >>>>>(WAN)Pfsense(LAN)>>>>>FTP Server.

                    When I run a copy ftp command it times out. I can telnet to port 21 and without pfsense it works just fine.

                    Windows cmd ftp works fine and filexilla work fine for active mode. However for passive I just cant seem to connect.

                    Appreciate your help.

                    Thanks.

                      This proxy is not intended for that scenario, it is for clients on LAN connecting to remote FTP servers. Please start a new thread for that question.
