Just a guess.  FTP has an 'active' mode and a
'passive' mode.  I believe that your default
environment sets your FTP client to 'passive.'

Once you have logged in to the FTP server,
enter the command 'passive'; this will turn
'passive' mode off, placing you in 'active'
mode.  Then try your transfer.
