Lets either change ftp program defaults to > Passive On or login.conf defaults to Passive Off. I prefer second variant: Um, the point of turning FTP_PASSIVE_MODE on by default is that it's not just one "client" which uses it. The ftpio(3) library uses it, for one, and hence pkg_add, sysinstall and fetch do too. I can count at least 4 "ftp programs" here which would all need to be changed independently and I don't much like that idea during code freeze, even if you could convince me that it was a good idea. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
