FTP PASSIVE MODE!!!!! ARRGGG!!!!

Team, can someone help, how do I configure vsftp or pureftp so that I can run ls, dir, cd etc…etc…commands when I login into that server from command line??? I keep getting this rubbish about

229 Entering Extended Passive Mode (|||25531|)

Have you read and do you understand Active vs. Passive mode FTP? The line
you are seeing is indicating that the server is going to try to give you
your data but it is doing so using the method most-likely to work for most
users. If you do not want it you can force Active mode when you setup the
FTP connection (if not later) and that may help. Another thing you can do
is get out of the way of Passive mode. See the Wikipedia entry for a lot
of good data on the two modes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Transfer_Protocol

As a test try disabling the firewall on the server and seeing if that
works. If it does you should know where you need to go next.

Good luck.
