It could be that the one ftp client is using passive versus active ftp. 
Depending on which, if the machine has it's firewall on, it might need 
to have the firewall conn track module for ftp loaded, not just the tcp 
port 21 open.

Or you could set gftp to use the other type of connection.

The log message from the bottom gftp window might help to work out what 
is going on.
