hehe, i dunno...

hummm... perhaps the following was missed??

450 No such file or directory.
    Automatic failover of data connection mode from "Passive Mode
(PASV)" to "Active Mode (PORT)".
    PORT 192,168,2,7,5,203

 SD> Try it again sans passive mode and you'll get through.

i did with the same results... 'cept this time is autofailovered from
active to passive... there are a few more settings that i might be able to
thump...

[time passes]

i've not found a combination that works... i'm assuming that 192.168.1.4 is
an address internal to your network... the other is one of mine...

i only have this problem with IREX ftp servers... no others...

my setup is (currently) double NAT'd, if that could possibly make any difference...

  'net -> OS2/Injoy dialer -> dlink router -> deeply internal boxes

it used to look like this...

  'net -> OS2/Injoy dialer -> linux router -> deeply internal boxes

pretty soon, it'll look like this...

                     .- orange-> DMZ'd boxes
  'net -> firewall -<                       
                     `- green -> internal boxes

luck would likely have it that the above one (coming soon) might correct
this "problem" but i won't know until i get it done...  and then
there's the question of if i'll be able to SAMBA to the DMZ'd boxes like i
currently do...
