That's hardly useful. All it does is tell the server to open up a listening
socket. It doesn't tell the client to connect to that listening socket when
it makes its next transfer. Passive transfers are not supported in the
command-line FTP client - but there are numerous third-party clients that
are available which do support passive mode file transfers.
