   are those dots or commas? the string you posted looks suspiciously like the   
   standard ftp PORT command...   
      
   you can find out more (than you probably really want to know) here... the PORT   
   command is discussed in the "Active FTP Example" section...

   it looks to be a truncation of PORT...   
      
   this link might be of more assistance if you desire to dig further... you   
   might even find something that explains things in an easier to understand   
   manner...

   If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until   
   you hire an amateur.
