What happens when you connect locally on the ftp-server itself? If you do a "ftp localhost" and use the "passive" command and then ask a directory-listing, does that work?
I don't know if I can help you, since I'm not very familiar with FTP-servers, but I can always try. However, you provide very little information about the server itself, so at this point I can only speculate...

We have a situation wherein the FTP connections from a Client over a secure connection like ANX, when using PASV mode file transfers
So, the client is NOT on the ANX-network, but he's connecting to it, right? Or are both the server and client on the ANX-network? I'm asking because I found this piece of text on the internet:

ANX is a secure private network that uses standard, open Internet protocols but carries all traffic over private lines leased from various carriers. Through IPSEC and end-to-end encryption, ANX provides secure service to its customers like that of a typical VPN. Where it's different from a typical VPN is that the routers that make up the network check every packet to make sure it comes from an IP address on the private network. Thus, nobody but customers can get into the network.
So routing could be an issue... This article came from
