This might be because of 21 port on firewall machine is not forwarded to
LAN_IP or similar.
Try this one on FW_Server..
iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -i iface_name -d firewall_server
--dport 21 -j DNAT --to LAN_IP:21
iface_name = incoming connected with internet on FW_Server
LAN_IP = where you would like to forward ftp request
Hope this will work ..
