there is a firewall between the two networks.  the A network has unrestricted 
access to all machine on the B network, however the B network is restricted to
the point where it can't originate connections, however it can establish
connections that are the response to connections originating from the A network.

in other words...  i can ftp from A to B without the need for passive mode, but
i can't ftp or telnet (or anything for that matter) from the B side.

this is about as clear as i can make it, if you still need more clarrification
let me know and i'll try again.
