In the process of setting up ftpd I seem to have hit a snag.  When I try to ftp
to my server from home (OpenBSD -current) all goes well until I issue the ls command.
I get this error: "435 Can't build data connection: No such file or directory."  I 
am able to ls when I connect from the server itself and from a linux box outside my 
home network.  I figured it might be my nat rules but I am able to connect to other
ftp sites just fine (like rt.fm).  My inetd.conf looks like this "ftp   stream
tcp nowait  root  /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -AUS" and I opened up port 21 on my
firewall.  Does anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.

Once again, I solved my own problem 10seconds after I emailed the list.  You'd
think the official FAQ would always be the first place one would look when they
encounter a problem.
