Hi y'all.
Every now and then I wander off to look at Mozilla and at one point
tried out the self-installer. The problem was that I'm behind an
IPChains box and the FTP transfer failed I can only guess due to the
fact the transfer wasn't passive. Since newer apps are downloading
sofwtare like this (think Helixcode although it does HTTP) is there a
way to set FTP transfers as passive? An environment variable?
I've bumped up against a couple other proggies that gave me the same
grief, so I figure it'd be a handy thing to know :)
Cheers,
Graeme
