FTP Upload Firewall

Hi,

I have recently written or more exactly copied some code to help me
create an FTP file uploader. This all works fine in development and on
any test servers i have used. For the live environment the networks
guys have given me an firewall path to use as part of the ftp details
so i now have

host
username
password
firewall path

previously for the dev servers i didn thave the firewall path.

to be honest i dont really understand the firewall part and i dont
really want to go and ask them in case i look stupid. Does this mean i
have to add extra functiaonlity to my FTP class to add the firewall
parameters ???? or am i missing the point ??

Any help on this appreciated as im a bit confuced

thanks
