Need help setting up site to site transfer

Hi,
I'm having problems getting site to site (fxp) transfers to work and I was hoping someone in here could offer me some help and guidance.

I'm running the latest FlashFXP (upgraded today) and I want to be able to do a site to site transfer for backup from different servers to my server which runs FreeBSD 4.11 with the latest Proftpd installed as the ftp server.

I just keep getting error messages when trying to do an FXP. The directories are created, but no files are moved:

L] PASV
[L] 227 Entering Passive Mode (edited).
[R] PORT (edited)
[R] 500 Illegal PORT command
Site to Site Transfer Failed! (Attempting alternative method)

I have tried many things and changed the proftpd.conf several times. I have even posted messages to the proftpd mailinglist without any success. I have also tried the example config here in the Flashfxp knowledgebase.

What are the requirements to get FXP to work?

Any other things I can try to make it work?

Thanks,
Andreas
