Any proftp pros out there?

Hello,
I just installed ProFTP for my Fedora core 2 system. It's up and
running but when I try and connect via the gFTP client, the system
just hangs. The log follows:

220 FTP Server ready.
USER laredotornado

331 Password required for laredotornado.
PASS xxxx
230 User laredotornado logged in.
TYPE I

200 Type set to I
PWD

257 "/" is current directory.
PORT 192,168,1,101,128,14

200 PORT command successful
LIST -aL

Connection to ww.xx.yy.zz timed out

The only ports open on the server are HTTP, FTP, and SSH.
Additionally, I have unchecked the "Passive File Transfers" option.
Does anyone know how I can attempt to start debugging this problem?

Check your firewall settings. Make sure eth0 (or whatever it may be) is in
trusted devices

So, you're forcing FTP to run in "active" mode, which requires connections
using the high ports, and you're firewalled the system not to allow any
connections in the high ports. Contradictory. Do one of the below:
- use passive mode ftp (easiest)
- load ftp conntrack helper and allow all RELATED,ESTABLISHED traffic
- open up all "high" ports (not recommended)

I added that to my trusted devices and everything works great now, thanks! -
