This can require changes to the TCP length and expected\nseq / ack_seq.\n\nThe easiest way to reproduce this issue is with PASV mode.\nExample ruleset:\ntable inet ftp_nat {\n ct helper ftp_helper {\n type \"ftp\" protocol tcp\n l3proto inet\n }\n\n chain prerouting {\n type filter hook prerouting priority 0; policy accept;\n tcp dport 21 ct state new ct helper set \"ftp_helper\"\n }\n}\ntable ip nat {\n chain prerouting {\n type nat hook prerouting priority -100; policy accept;\n tcp dport 21 dnat ip prefix to ip daddr map {\n\t\t\t192.168.100.1 : 192.168.13.2/32 }\n }\n\n chain postrouting {\n type nat hook postrouting priority 100 ; policy accept;\n tcp sport 21 snat ip prefix to ip saddr map {\n\t\t\t192.168.13.2 : 192.168.100.1/32 }\n }\n}\n\nNote that the ftp helper gets assigned *after* the dnat setup.\n\nThe inverse (nat after helper assign) is handled by an existing\ncheck in nf_nat_setup_info() and will not show the problem.\n\nTopoloy:\n\n +-------------------+ +----------------------------------+\n | FTP: 192.168.13.2 | <-> | NAT: 192.168.13.3, 192.168.100.1 |\n +-------------------+ +----------------------------------+\n |\n +-----------------------+\n | Client: 192.168.100.2 |\n +-----------------------+\n\nftp nat changes do not work as expected in this case:\nConnected to 192.168.100.1.\n[..]\nftp> epsv\nEPSV/EPRT on IPv4 off.\nftp> ls\n227 Entering passive mode (192,168,100,1,209,129).\n421 Service not available, remote server has closed connection.\n\nKernel logs:\nMissing nfct_seqadj_ext_add() setup call\nWARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at
