Passive - If set to a non-zero value then all data transfers will be done
using passive mode. If set to zero then data transfers will be done using
active mode.

Subject: Net::FTP troubles with passive

Hi Folks,

I have a script that sends a file to a vendor. After running tcpdump I
can see that it's trying to do a passive mode transfer which our
firewall is having problems with. I would like to turn this off and
specify an active mode transfer, but the doco for Net::FTP only talks
about turning passive mode _on_. It's silent about turning it off, which
would make me think that "off" should be the default. AFAIK,
active/passive mode selection is a client issue...

Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks for any replies!
