I had heard of this, but I haven't tried it. It looks like an alternative to what's provided in Server Admin. (Perhaps it would be more useful under the non-Server versions of Mac OS X.)
You could try asking on Apple's macos-x-server list, but I think you may be out of luck.
I didn't bother to subscribe to the list and ask, but I did search the online archive. I found lots of discussion (many of it repetitive and sometime degenerating toward infantile) about the passive FTP problem, but the only practical solution with ipfw seems to be to open up a range of ports.
There was no discussion about the similar problem with Amanda backups, but I'm assuming a similar solution would be the best I could hope for.
