  Indeed your ftp service hangs. Yes, ftp uses port 20/21 usually.
Try setting passive mode on. Here's what I got after turning on debug,
and passive. Look familiar?

ftp> passive
Passive mode on.
ftp> ls
ftp: setsockopt (ignored): Permission denied
---> PASV
227 Entering Passive Mode (195,190,104,4,8,127)
