From a colleague working on our RHEL 6 deployment (similar to F14/F15):

root # vi /etc/sysconfig/modules/ip_nat_ftp.modules
#!/bin/sh
exec /sbin/modprobe ip_nat_ftp
root # chmod +x /etc/sysconfig/modules/ip_nat_ftp.modules

Perhaps you should also start using the new name, nf_nat_ftp (although
its alias, ip_nat_ftp, the previous name, still works).
