The FTP PORT command means that the data-transfer (the directory
listing, the up- or downloaded data) should be done by initiating
a connection from the FTP-server to the client. This is known
as active mode in FTP.
So if this freezes (and don't immediately come back with an
error) that means, that a firewall is dropping (instead of
rejecting them leading to a clear error-message) the packets
for this.
So check the firewall-settings on the Window-box, of an
intermediate firewall or your AS/400 box if there are rules
that prevent the data-transfer.
Alternatively change from active to passive mode where the
data-connection is established by the client.
I have no problems using FTP
with the remote AS/400 and I did not change anything on my local AS/
400. Thanks in advance for all responses.
So most likely it's the Windows-box where a new firewall is
installed or an existing one was losing the rules for allowing
the operation of a FTP server.
