No. Allowable responses to the PASV command include 227 (Entering
passive mode), 500 (Unrecognized command), 501 (Invalid parameters),
502 (Command not implemented), 421 (Service not available), and 530
(Not logged in). A server which does not wish to allow passive mode
can thus choose to acknowledge the command but refuse to obey it
(502), or to reject the command altogether (500).
