[ale] requirements of enabling FTP under Mandrake9.2 ?

I've been trying to transfer a 'tar' file using ftp [to a FreeBSD 
machine] without success.

1-cd to mandrake dir containing file to transfer
2-ftp bsdbox
	cd to dir to which file is to be transferred
		put <file>

then, I get...........

PORT command successful
Opening BINARY mode data connection for <file>

then, mandrake hangs and nothing happens.

What's wrong and how is it cured, please ?

Thank you.
