Hi all.

My questions is this.  I have Checkpoint R54 installed on a IP330.  My rules
allow incoming and outgoing ftp's.  When I am using a web browser and I try
to download a file from a remote site.  The ftp request goes out on a port
other than 21.  It goes out on higher ports.  Thus, Checkpoint drops the
request, because it isn't in the rules.  How can I get checkpoint to allow
these connections, without having to add different ports from everywhere.  I
don't want to open all ports.  Any help is appreciated.  I'm guessing it's a
Smart Defense thing, but am not sure.

Nathan
