Hi All

How to classify packets belonging to a FTP session?
Port 21 session is easy. but what about data transfers? Their port numbers 
(both) are above 1024. 

I was thinking about ip_conntrack_ftp. Something like:

iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp --sport 1024: --dport 1024:  \
	-m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j CLASSIFY --set-class X:Y

But what if I also have ip_conntrack_irc, for instance. IRC packets will also
be directed to X:Y class since they are RELATED packets.

How to make shure that only FTP RELATED packets will be CLASSIFY'ed??
