Active data transfers require the server to connect back to the client
machine:

If you have any NAT, router, or firewall software on the client side of
things, that would cause problems with active transfers.

   "Why does it rain?"  A simple question at first.  However, upon
   reflection one finds that the answers one receives to a why question
   are not answers of "why", but rather answers of "how" or "what".  It
   is an interesting phenomenon.  In this light, the question becomes
   much more complex, intriguing, and profound:  "Why does it rain?"
