Shut the hell up and get a grip. Just because you don't understand what
Alstarir was saying doesn't give you the right to abuse him. 
The problem is that with FTP the server makes a connection back to the 
client. With the currenty configuration that connection would appear to
be from a different host than the one that they're connected to. This is
of course RFC legal, but stupid FTP clients might get confused.
