1# Active mode is beneficial to the FTP Server’s security, while Passive mode typically requires less configuration changes on the Client’s side.
Active mode:Client uses random port to connect to server Port 21 to establish connection.Server then opens data connection from server port 20 to client computer on a random port.
Passive mode:Client uses random port to connect to server Port 21 to establish connection.Client uses random port to open data connection.Server must have this random port open on firewall.Client firewall usually automatically allow whichever port is chosen.

4# root_squash — Prevents root users connected remotely from having root privileges and assigns them the user ID for the user nfsnobody. This effectively "squashes" the power of the remote root user to the lowest local user, preventing unauthorized alteration of files on the remote server. Alternatively, the no_root_squash option turns off root squashing. To squash every remote user, including root, use the all_squash option.
