Shorewall users - Nov 2002 - (no subject)

I have changed my port in poftpd on 80 because I have to. But after
 proftpd restart and shorewall restart ftp serwer not working on 80 (on 21
 also not - I chave changed port numer in proftpd.conf).
 I think that I have also change in my shorewall configuration ?

You will of course need to allow port 80 inbound. Also see 
http://shorewall.sf.net/ports.htm -- there is a section there about FTP on 
non-standard ports.

I must add that using port 80 for FTP is a bad idea because it will result 
in the kernel on your firewall scanning all http traffic looking for FTP 
''PORT'' and ''PASV'' commands!!
