+# way around. That is required on systems behind NAT where the client
+# computer cannot be easily reached from the Internet. However, some

+# problems supporting passive transfer. If you are in such
+# environment, use "passive_ftp = off" to revert to active FTP.

+# on a file, 2 seconds after the second failure, etc. up to this max).
