Hi,

I'm trying to connect out from a Debian container to an external FTP server.

It works fine from the host node (with the same firewall) and it works fine from the container when I take down the firewall, but with the firewall up, it connects but will not do the directory listing:

230 Login successful.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp> 
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
425 Failed to establish connection.
ftp> 


It looks like the ip_conntrack_ftp module doesn't seem to be working.

It's in both vz.conf and the container's own config file - 101.conf:
IPTABLES="ip_tables ipt_REJECT ipt_tos ipt_limit ipt_multiport iptable_filter iptable_mangle ipt_TCPMSS ipt_tcpmss ipt_ttl ipt_length ip_conntrack ip_conntrack_ftp ip_conntrack_irc ipt_LOG ipt_conntrack ipt_helper ipt_state iptable_nat ip_nat_ftp ip_nat_irc ipt_TOS"


Host and container are both running Debian:

Host Node:
# uname -a
Linux 2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 9 23:10:10 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

# lsmod |grep ftp

nf_conntrack           82688  10 nf_nat_irc,nf_nat_ftp,iptable_nat,nf_nat,xt_helper,xt_conntrack,nf_conntrack_irc,nf_conntrack_ftp,xt_state,nf_conntrack_ipv4


Container:
$ uname -a
Linux 2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64 #1 SMP Tue Mar 9 23:10:10 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux


Any ideas why it's not working?

Thanks,

Ian

Hi.

The same thing on Centos 5.4 and x86_64 host node
# uname -a
Linux vz.hostnode.tld 2.6.18-164.15.1.el5.028stab068.9 #1 SMP Tue Mar 30 18:07:38 MSD 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


ip_conntrack_ftp is loaded but doesn't work inside 32-bit container:
# uname -a
Linux ct.container.tld 2.6.18-164.15.1.el5.028stab068.9 #1 SMP Tue Mar 30 18:07:38 MSD 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

There are some dropped packets by iptables and only one record in /proc/net/ip_conntrack:

At the same time it works while connecting from HN:

There are no dropped packets by iptables and two corresponding records in /proc/net/ip_conntrack in this case:
# cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack | grep 81.30.195.156
tcp      6 431903 ESTABLISHED src=10.0.0.196 dst=81.30.195.156 sport=42787 dport=21 packets=17 bytes=970 src=81.30.195.156 dst=10.0.0.196 sport=21 dport=42787 packets=13 bytes=982 [ASSURED] mark=0 secmark=0 use=1

Also ip_conntrack_ftp works fine on 32-bit host nodes in both cases (from HN and container).
Do you have any clues?

Thanks in advance,
Pavel
