Hello,

I have a small problem on some of my servers: Win2003 Server SP1 all the
patches installed. Windows firewall is enabled, ftp.exe is allowed to
connect, port tcp:21 is opened from outside but I cannot create *outgoing*
ftp connection neither in active nor in passive mode:

~~~
D:\>ftp ftp.cdrom.com
Connected to cdrom.wip.digitalriver.com.
Connection closed by remote host.
~~~

Sure, switching off firewall solves the problem.

Anyone, any clues ?
