Hi all,
I have this teething problem with SSL implementation. Below is the following
info & problem faced.

The environment/configuration:
1) WS_FTP Server 3.11sits behind Checkpoint Firewall and does NAT
2) Client uses WS_FTP Pro 7.0 - no firewall
3) Client connects to server via dial-up (eg: 28.8kbps modem)
4) Ftp connection is enabled only for PORT mode (Active ftp). Passive is not
enabled.
5) Client enables SSL on WS_FTP Pro

Scenario:
1) Client connect to ftp server
2) Secure communication is establish (ack is sent back after client sent PORT
command - indicated by code 200)
3) WS_FTP Pro automatically sends MLSD(or LIST) command to server
4) Server attempts to establish data connection on Port 20
5) Netstat revealed server's state is at "SYNC_SENT" on port 20.
6) Data connection fails

The Log:
AUTH SSL
234 SSL enabled and waiting for negotiation
XAUT 2 <1<7?4D;6?78C;D<87<4?:D1<2<5?4D?6?81C5?<<585?3
230 user logged in
Host type (I): WS_FTP Server
Host type (I): WS_FTP Server
PWD
257 "/users/0030" is current directory
PORT 165,21,166,142,4,187
200 command successful
MLSD
425 Can't open data connection.

Without the firewall, I am able to connect to the server via LAN(not dial-up)
using SSL.

Has anyone implemented SSL on similar environment/configs as my server aboved?
Has anyone face similar problems and managed to solve it? your help is greatly
appreciated.

regards,
Jason
