So, I've been having all sorts of weird behaviour with CPAN on my 
MacOS X box at home, and I suddenly realized what I think the problem 
is:  my firewall setup requires that I do all my ftp'ing in passive 
mode.  I've looked through the CPAN configuration options, and can't 
seem to find anything that would tell it to do it's ftp'ing 
passively.  Is there a way to do this?
