   If you have a firewall which I assume most do then for passive mode you have to   
   open a range of ports to allow incoming connections.  For example if you allow   
   10 incoming connections on your FTP server then you would need to open up 10   
   ports.  The starting port range by default is 60000 (configurable in FTP server   
   settings) and Mystic will use that starting port + the number of incoming   
   connections as the ports for passive FTP.  If you have 10 incoming connections   
   configured you'd need to open ports 60000-60009 in your firewall for incoming   
   connections.
