     There are other ipfilter NAT issues that motivated the switch...
     
     Try an "ftp http://la.causeuse.org/index.html"; from behind an 
     ipfilter NATing NetBSD/sparc (generally big-endian, probably) 
     machine. It is a NetBSD/mac68k 1.5 machine, sitting behind an openbsd 
     pf router. I was able to access it from work (ipfilter @ i386), but 
     all connections (http, shs , nntp) stalled from behind the ss10 at 
     home (Martin Husemann confirmed that one). So, it's not just an ftp 
     proxy issue.
 
 
 i was able to fetch this file from behind a netbsd/sparc64
 4.0_BETA2 system from a netbsd/i386 client.
