WinSCP. (No, seriously, it is, and it *also* makes it trivial to move to a
simple, reliable and secure transport like SSH without the client really
knowing the difference. :)

So, when the user tries to connect, what state are the relevant sockets at the
client and server end? My guess is the client is trying to connect to the
server, but the server firewall is blocking the (passive FTP) connection.

That isn't a good start: the client asked the server to connect to a private
IP address (192.168.97.49) with active FTP. Behind NAT like that the client
should either improve their firewall, or disable active FTP entirely.

At this point the server *should* be expecting a connection from the client,
on TCP/44875, but I bet the firewall isn't letting that through.
Check your firewall logs first, to see if you have a record of blocking that
connection or not.
