Subject: Regression between 4.6.2 and 4.8.17: ftp and iptables

We have a server with vsftpd-2.0.7-4.35.1 on SUSE SLES 11.3 and use 
iptables local firewall
With kernel 4.6.2 it runs normal, when using 4.8.17, ftp doesn’t work 
anymore. It seems iptables doesn’t open the port for the passive ftp 
connection from the client.

The options for the kernel should be the same, although a diff between 
the two configs spits a lot of lines.
I don’t find any mistake from our side, so I guess there was a change in 
the kernel?

Please ask me directly in case of questions, I’m not on linux-kernel.

mit freundlichen Grüssen,
Michael Monnerie
