If I turnoff EPSV doing

Things work fine, is the mac default ftp client not compatible to
the Extended passive mode?
Or do I need to change some setting in some configuration file?
Note: This has really nothing to do with Darwin Kernel...
It's not your client; the response you say you are getting is invalid
according to RFC 2428.
Check your firewall, their firewall, and whether their FTP server is
advertising that it supports EPSV.
If it's your firewall, then either reconfigure it or change your FTP
client defaults.
If their FTP server advertises that they support EPSV, then either
their firewall is misconfigured (or broken), or their FTP server is
misconfigured with respect to their firewall settings (though a good
stateful firewall would take this into account already, so this could
be considered firewall breakage as well). Some FTP software doesn't
support reconfiguration of this option (and you are back to the
firewall taking this into account).
