Well I don't think so. Mind the oddities of FTP. Transfering data
will only work with port mode where your FTP server initiates the data
connection from port 20. Passive mode means the data connection is initiated
by the FTP client from an arbitrary port to an arbitrary port of your FTP
server (your firewall in your case). I bet you won't allow those
connections? But so a lot FTP clients (Communicator, IE) won't work.
Am I right?
