   Hi Marc,   
      
   I think that is a wrong premise! ;-) It's dangerous only when on the backend   
   is running a service outdated (and probably with a bug or security hole).   
      
   BBBS defines the port of response/connection only when a passive ftp   
   connection is started. Until this moment there is nothing at the backend   
   (secure).   
      
   There is more dangerous to run BBBS with an superuser.

so basically, you've   
   eliminated the firewall completely... opening all ports
and directing   
   them to one machine is NOT a good thing :/
