need iptables.conf syntax

[ToddAndMargo]

I am told elsewhere that this is not the proper syntax:

/etc/modprobe.d/iptables.conf add

nf_conntrack_ftp ports=21

Anyone know what the right syntax is?

Many thanks,

I believe you want

options nf_conntrack_ftp ports=21

Thank you all.  I had lost the "options" in my
notes somehow, but it was in my actual file, so that
explains why no error message.

man modprobe.d
 and
man modprobe.conf
