Hi Layne,

you have to enable passive connections in your ftp client. In addition, you have to force 
xitami to use the interface ,on which the ftp server is listening, to use for the passive 
connections. Take a look at the xitami.cfg for the section.It's easy to find and to 
configure in the default.cfg.
