Is this using JTOpen?

FTP is somewhat hard to proxy due to the complexity with the data
connections. There are dedicated FTP proxy products but I do not have
any experience myself. I know that there has been some discussions
here on similar topics, so there might be others with more experience.

As for FtpServer, we support configuring a external IP for passive
data connections which should help.
