Can I block _only_ privileged access with ipchains?



Sorry, I know this isn't exactly debian specific...

I want my firewall to allow access from unprivileged ports to unprivileged
ports.  So, if I connect to an ftp site on a port above 1023 and my client
is using a port above 1023, the packets are allowed to cross.

Possible?  I can find anything about it in the docs.  Any other comments?
I know that this would allow a malicious user on my network to do insecure
things, but I trust myself, my wife, and my two month old baby ;-)

Thanks,
	Dale
