Yes, but you don't know which one; that's the beauty of FTP, it chooses
a high-numbered socket at random for the data connection. You have two
choices; either insist that all your clients use passive ftp (which
all clients should be able to do, and a lot will do by default) or have
a proxy ftp module on your firewall (ipchains can certainly do this,
but I don't know if there's an easily available Smoothwall thing to
make it happen).
