Hi all
I have proftpd setup at home and here at work i'd like to access it. At
home I tried it out and it works fine over the home network... using
cuteftp here at work produces the following log... basically it hangs a
while on Connecting data socket... and then says Failed to establish
data

work with proftpd you need to allow the ftp client to either: i) connect to
any random high port or ii) connect to a range of ports specified on
