Hi friends,

I am trying for Secure FTP conneciton through firewall, but it is
failing before the SSL handshake.
FTP client starts the handshake & sends the client Hello message to
server, but before I receive server Hello, the conneciton is broken & I
get IOException.
I feel, it is because, server is trying to connect to connect to the
the client for Data Connection, but failing to get the connection due
to the firewall rules. We have tried to set different firewall rules by
referring the data on net, but still it fails.

Has anybody ever tried this ? is there any clue for setting the
firewall rules for this ?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Sachin
