when you start your ftp client, use 'pftp' instead of 'ftp'.  if you
use a different ftp client, check it's man pages. 

I thinkn (not sure) tha tyou can use the PASV command from the ftp
prompt as well, once you are connected, to get a file in passive
mode.  

e.g.
ftp> PASV README.txt


have fun,
