Here's my concern.
I've got several references that conflict. When simply allowing
FTP services through the perimeter to a subnet or host on the
intranet, is it <ftp-data> or <gt 1023>?
The port 21 goes w/o question.

Solie says w/ confidence that a common mistake w/ FTP is
opening the ftp-data(port 20) when in fact a random port
above 1023 is what's needed.

I'll be labbing it out while waiting for feedback.
