Hi!

I had the same problem and it turned out, that you (obviously)
connect to the server via port 4559, but thats only the control port;
the data are coming in via ftp. Poorly, this session is created by
the server, that caused trouble to me.

My solution: I use OpenVPN to connect to the server and become part
of the remote LAN. Then I can just allow those services internally
and I'm done.
It is also much more secure that way.

cu,
Stefan
