Passive FTP sees remote's _internal_ IP!!??

We created a workaround for this by forcing all FTP to be
active, not
passive.  We did this with jftpgw (
ht
tp://www.mcknight.de/jftpgw/jftpgw-0.13.5.tar.gz ) with
a transparent
proxy setup.

This is the configuration:
#!/bin/sh

./configure 
"--prefix=/usr" 
"--sysconfdir=/etc" 
"--localstatedir=/var" 
"--enable-crypt" 
"--enable-libwrap" 
"--with-logpath=/var/log" 
"$"

make all install

And the jftpgw.conf:
<global>
	serverport		21
	defaultmode		active
	debuglevel		8
	changeroot		never
	dropprivileges		startsetup
	runasuser		nobody
	loginstyle		0
	logintime		user
	commandtimeout		60
	dnslookups		no
	forwardlookups		no
	hostcachetimeout	28800
	initialsyst		yes
	reverselookups		no
	strictasciiconversion	on
	syslogfacility		daemon
	transfertimeout		120
	transparent-proxy	on
	welcomeline		.
</global>
<servertype standalone>
	listen			192.168.223.254:2370
	logstyle		files
	logfile			/var/log/jftpgw.log
	pidfile			/var/run/jftpgw.pid
</servertype>
<servertype inetd>
	logstyle		syslog
</servertype>
<from 0.0.0.0/0>
	access deny
</from>
<from 192.168.223.0/24>
	access allow
</from>

And the iptables line:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s 192.168.223.0/24
--dport 21 -j
DNAT --to 192.168.223.254:2370

Hi,

i think i found a bug, but I'm not sure if it is a bug or
expected behaviour.
I noticed that if the text field of a comment is left empty
and you
hit comment, no correct redirect takes place and the browser
shows an
empty page.

with kind regards
steven
