[RndTbl] FTP problems

[S/C Conway]

G'Day,
    I have been trying for months to connect to a vendors FTP site using
my Linux box (RH7.2), with no success. I can connect to the site but
when I issue a command (e.g cd or get <filename> I recieve ENTERING
PASSIVE MODE (IP ADDRESS) and after some time connection timeout. I know
the box at the other end is NT4.0.
    If I use a windows 98 O/S no problems.
   Does anyone have some suggestions to analyize the problem? I can use
some links to do some reading if you have them.
