Hi all,
I am suddenly unable to FTP to any of my servers from my home machine. I can log in ok, but whenever I send a command it just hangs. This happens from the command line, in Explorer, and also in TerrapinFTP.

Example command line session:

Connected to (servername).
220 (servername) FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready.
User ((servername):(none)): username
331 Password required for username.
Password:
230 User username logged in, access restrictions apply.
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful.
425 Can't build data connection: Operation timed out.
ftp>

But I've obviously replaced the server name and my username with (servername) and username respectively.

Does anyone know what's going on? C:\DOS:>
C:\DOS:>RUN
RUN DOS RUN!!
