| It just dies....Here is the output from LeechFTP :

It doesn't "just die".  In fact, it doesn't die at all. It connects 
successfully and gets all the way up to your first attempted data 
transfer (apparently a LIST).  And then it gracefully reports the 
error.  This is very helpfull.

So this log was captured from the FTP client, right?

You said it is the server that is masq'ed, so the client should be 
connecting from outside.  Yet when the client sends its IP address in 
the PORT command, it is a private network number.  That's why you 
get:

| < 500 Illegal PORT Command
| ~ Could not retrieve directory listing for "/home/sean/"

This is a problem on the *client* side, not the server.  It appears 
the FTP client is itself on a private network behind a masquerading 
firewall, and the client's masquerade box is either not running the 
ip_masq_ftp module, or it is running but wasn't told to look for FTP 
connections on port 210.

When you load ip_masq_ftp.o, use the ports option, e.g.:

insmod ip_masq_ftp ports=21,210
