[Xitami-Dev] 44: In FTP, 'ls' fails from a remote system (it works locally)

[Gary Hartmann]

In the FAQ:
44: In FTP, 'ls' fails from a remote system (it works locally)

This is probably due to the remote machine being hidden by a router or
firewall which prevents return connections from the FTP server to the
client. You should use passive mode for such connections. The next release
of Xitami handles this situation better, but the basic problem is
unsolvable; if the client is behind a firewall or router that does not allow
reverse connections (i.e. server to client) then the default FTP protocol
does not work correctly.
