 Sounds like a bug in the firewall, not a bug in the ftp client.
 SYST is in RFC959, right there with the other FTP commands;
 FreeBSD is not wrong to be using it.
 
 Just as a data point, we have a firewall/1 and it doesn't mind
 SYST commands.  Perhaps Checkpoint already has a patch for this
 bug?
