I don't see FQDN changing much, so just do an nslookup and put the ip range in your rules. Once a month or if users complain do an nslookup and put the new ip in or remove dead ones. Or just put a single ip, if it goes down or is busy tell the ignorant admin to fix his machine or run a real load distributer instead of round robin dns.

We need to use a FQDN, instead of IP address, to access a ftp server. It is because there are a number of hosts/ip addresses behind the FQDN for fail-over. The ftp server operator refuses to update us if there is any IP address change for that FQDN. How can I construct a FW-1 rule to accommodate it? Any pointers are appreciated.
