It seems to be a ftpd side problem...

First i tried vsftpd. We have vsftpd running on linux servers and there is 
no such problems with them. On FreeBSD i got:
426 Failure writing network stream.
and the same result. It works perfectly with ProFTPD without problems but i 
don't wanna use ftpd from ports when i have one in the base...

Yeah i know that but here it is impossible because we are using 
custom windows ftp client for download on our user pcs.
