Yes it does.

        cerise:~$ ftp
        ftp> help passive
        passive         enter passive transfer mode

If you live behind a firewall, you probably want to create an init
macro ('macdef init') within your ~/.netrc file to enable passive mode
automatically, e.g.:

        default
        macdef init
        passive
