I am running into a situation where an FTP session to a client's i, where some commands work and others fail.

- Connection is via a VPN.
- FTP client is the basic Windows FTP.EXE, run in a DOS box.
- I'm able to connect and sign in using a QSECOFR level profile.
- Basic commands like CD, LCD, BIN, PWD work fine.
- Commands that access data like LS, DIR, GET, PUT have up the session for a while and then times out:

ftp> ls
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
425 Not able to open data connection.

- According to the network admin all ports for my connection are open.
- FTP to other machines from this PC work fine.

Any idea what might be causing this? Or how to debug it? TIA.
