>Description:
`ppp -nat -ddial ispname` is running
`nat punch_fw 15 25` enabled in ppp.conf
when a nat'ed host tries to do any directory listing on an ftp server,
it crashes without leaving a note in ppp.log or messsges.

man ppp says ppp should take one number 'base count', but if you only
give it one number it says:
`Warning: usage: nat punch_fw [base count]`

Two numbers work fine, except for the crash ;-)
>How-To-Repeat:
just ftp list any directory on a nat'ed host
>Fix:
disabling the `nat punch_fw` option solves the problem
