FTP Active mode problem problem, mode, Active, FTP

tom

I'm trying to use the supposedly fixed active mode for accessing an ftp (since the ftp server i'm using uses PRET so i can't use PASV mode and xbmc doesn't support it yet) and i managed to get it to connect by using the tag ?active=ipaddress in front of the ftp details, but the browser doesn't seem to be getting the contents...
after looking at the logs in debug mode i think although xbmc connects in active mode it doesn't list in active mode and uses the local ip for it instead of the external one, so i get a nat router error since by using active mode i should be sending out the external ip.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.
