I had the same problem with my system. My ISP is blocking all the ports
below 1024.. If I changed the ftp port to be higher, the data-connection
still didn't work.. It was in both modes, active and passive.. So I
figured it had something to do with the firewall on the other machine from
where I tried the connection.. Because one friend of mine succeeded to
open the connection. So check the firewall on the client side too..
But actually that didn't help my situation, as the place from where I
wanted to get the connection used a firewall too.. But the way I overcame
this was openssh and sftp. I just defined my ssh port to be larger than
that 1024 and then the sftp connection from outside works fine. This was
after I updated to 7.1. I think that the ssh server in 7.0 doesn't have
that sftp so well supported. Or.. Possibly it has but there was
something... I got it working too when I installed openssh server from
web to it. But now in 7.1 it works fine with the SuSE package.
