response. I'll give it a go and provide some feedback.
Many thanks

Just to be clear about something.  You can run a GridFTP server in  
standard FTP stream mode (MODE S) and force it into passive.  You can  
not do that with GridFTP in extended block mode (MODE E).  The  
protocol says that the receiving side MUST be the TCP listener and  
the sending side MUST initiate the TCP connect.
