Passive mode not set

[patricktokeeffe]

I'm observing that despite having specified passive mode, the resulting .scr files do not contain the passive directive. Even during the installation process there are instances of 500 Illegal PORT command, which does not occur when passive mode is used.

Here is IR_ftp.scr after installation. Note the blank line where passive should be.

And likewise ftp.scr does not contain the passive line:

In this state, the FTP transfer fails:

After manually editing both files to add passive things work OK.
