Hello,

you fall prey to a firewall issue. I've explained this in details on several occasions in this group. Search the archive for the term "passive mode" if you're curious.

Would you have cared to mention your actual issue right from the start instead of your very generic initial question, quite some wasted "round trips" and your wrong conclusion about size restrictions could have been spared. ;-)
