I've been playing with IPSec using the ruleset available from AnalogX, and I've
run into a snag. The FTP rules, both client and server, will only deal with
active FTP. I would like to be able to use the popular passive (PASV) FTP mode,
but I can't think of anyway to do it with IPSec without exposing the whole
system. Can somebody who actually understands this stuff give me a hint?
