Have you checked that you are not doing something in your firewall that is
blocking the outbound ftp-data connections?

Remember that redirection sends incomming connections to the inside machine.
But, outgoing connections from the inside machine still must traverse the natd
translation and any firewall rules you may have.  You might try setting your
firewall to "open" and then testing the connection.

I hope this helps.
