Your network and/or firewall(s) are messed ip but I can't explain why or 
how to fix it.

   - ftp and ssh from ubuntu on Internet both work.
   - ssh from a mac mini on my LAN works.  Can't test ftp from the mac.
   - ssh from anything raspios pi or ubuntu x86_64on my LAN fails and hangs


More data in case others have ideas.  I'm out of ideas on this one......


ftp from Internet ubuntu - note the mention of TLS here......

ubuntu@ip-172-26-0-17:~$ ftp www.grattans.org

I get the same nmap scans from mac (my LAN) and ubuntu (LAN 'or' Internet) 
systems - note 20 (ftp-data) and 990 (ftps - ftp over ssl) are closed but I 
don't know if it matters:
