No matter what your going to have to run a "client" on the machine you are
controlling, browsers are ubiquitous. You shouldn't need to write any scripts,
just make the file on your machine available via the web server.

Passive FTP uses one port, "standard" ftp uses two. The point of passive FTP is
that it works through firewalls, ip masq, NAT, whatever. If you do an FTP
download in most web browsers (Netscape at least) it is done in passive mode.
