I had similiar
symptoms, but the FTP would just hang. Once I made the changes below it
worked fine.

You should turn of FireWall-1's check for a
newline at the end of certain commands. In 4.0 installations, you can follow
the instructions for working through a TIS proxy on phoneboy.com. For 4.1
installations (possibly 4.0 SP7 as well), you comment out the line:
base.def #define FTP_ENFORCE_NL

I know that some larger sites do a reverse lookup
on your IP. If there is no DNS name associated with your ip it might deny you
access. It solved those issues in the past for me.

Subject: [FW-1] FTP Timeout
Hello
List:
When
I try to FTP from a site with a large welcome message (like IBM, HP and
Compaq) I always time out.
I am
using Checkpoint FW-1 SP5 on a Windows 2000
Server.
I
vaguely remember seeing a post regarding this but I cannot remember the
fix.
Any
help is appreciated.
