Does it work if the library is not QTEMP?

Subject: Weird FTP problem -- like nothing I've ever seen before!

Got a customer box with a weird FTP problem.

We can get a TN5250 session on it, no problem at all.

We can CONNECT to our FTP server from it, no problem at all.

We can get a directory listing (and change directories), no problem at all.

But regardless of whether we're doing a binary or text transfer,
regardless of whether passive mode is on or off, we get

get foo.txt qtemp/foo

227 Entering Passive Mode (66,39,74,210,228,195)
150 Data connection accepted from 75.144.168.145:41848; transfer starting for wterb.sql.txt (50163 bytes).
Unable to receive data from TCP/IP.
No response from remote host; all connections closed.

I've never seen anything like this before.
