[EMAIL PROTECTED]:(~)$ dpkg -l ftp ii ftp 0.17-12 The FTP client. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:(~)$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/ftp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 May 19 16:37 /etc/alternatives/ftp -> /usr/bin/netkit-ftp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:(~)$ dpkg -L ftp /. /usr /usr/bin /usr/bin/netkit-ftp /usr/share /usr/share/man /usr/share/man/man1 /usr/share/man/man1/netkit-ftp.1.gz /usr/share/man/man5 /usr/share/man/man5/netrc.5.gz /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/ftp /usr/share/doc/ftp/BUGS /usr/share/doc/ftp/README /usr/share/doc/ftp/copyright /usr/share/doc/ftp/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/ftp/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/bin/pftp /usr/share/man/man1/pftp.1.gz So you see he could be using one of many choices (not to mention OS's) which is why he needs to make sure he is operating in passive mode.
