Could you please enable passive mode ftp on the download servers? I am on windows xp, with firewall. I tried to use ncftp to get the dvd images of sarge/unofficial for the AMD-64 platform. Ncftp failed with the message: Passive mode refused. get debian-31r0a-amd64-binary-1.iso: passive mode failed. I cannot disable the firewall, nor would I want to. Please enable passive ftp for those many of us who are behind a firewall. Cheers, JD
