Huuh? no ftp program i know of will "accept connections" on port 20, unless i 
suppose you tell it to via some or other config file, but what would be the 
point of doing that.

On any system simply try;

 ftp localhost 20

If you get anything other than connection refused then you have one wierd 
system.

Port 21 accepts incomming ftp connections, port 20 is/can be used for 
data-transfers.
