I was trying to upload some files to a server:

220 Serv-U FTP-Server v2.5i for WinSock ready...

However, when I try uploading in either passive or regular mode, it just
hangs.  I am behind a firewall which disallows any incoming connections
that I've not pre-arranged in the forward tables.

I got a note back from the server owner stating he saw:

[2] Thu 09May02 17:34:58 - (000009) SYST
[6] Thu 09May02 17:34:58 - (000009) 215 UNIX Type: L8
[2] Thu 09May02 17:35:00 - (000009) EPSV
[6] Thu 09May02 17:35:00 - (000009) 500 'EPSV': command not understood.

I did a quick browse of the ftp(1) manpage, and it says this command
mentions this should not be used in the event you're in passive mode (it
should revert to PASV & PORT.

Or is this a firewalling issue?
