It probably means that the server in question holds strictly to
RFC959's definition of REST, rather than the more relaxed modern way.
959 says that REST works only for block and compressed modes, which are
almost never used.  (Relatively) recently, people have been using it
for stream mode as well, by making the restart marker a simple byte
count in the data stream.
