Hi Tim,
 
The FTP filter on the ISA firewall supports both active and PASV mode
FTP connections.

Hi Tom,
 
Thanks for the reply.  Sorry, when I said 'open ports', I was referring
to server publishing the ports (say 2000-2010).  So you are saying if I
server publish the FTP server, FTP clients using PASV mode can initiate
the connection to data port on the server without ISA blocking the
incoming traffic?

        Hi Tim,
         
        How do you "open ports" on the ISA firewall? There is no open
port button.
         
        Why not just server publish the FTP server?

        I am trying to do this in a secure way.  I have ISA2000 and an
IIS6.0 FTP server  published behind ISA with web publishing rule.
Recently, one of our client started to use FTP clients in passive mode
only.  This mean I will have to open up inbound ports >1024 for the
internal FTP server.  This is, as you know, a big security risk.  I
would really really appreciate if anyone has a workaround and/or
suggestion.
         
        Thanks
