Definitively my problem isn't iptables cause I'm not using it on the ftp server, the firewall is on another box (Checkpoint).

I don't know if this happens automagically on SLES or not, but something similar has to be done on _any_ Linux system running iptables. If you aren't running a firewall on your system, then of course it's not necessary to do this. I.e., if the only firewalls involved are _external_ to your Linux system.
