I just tried destination port 22. same problem.

Let me see if I get this right:
Ftp client talks to localhost port 21.
SSH client receives this session, encrypts it using SSH and sends it to
the other side to port 22. Server decrypts this, and forwards it to port
21 of the localhost. ftp server receives session.

1. Is ssh/ssh2 port-forwarding mechanism active-ftp-aware?
2. Why doesn't my ssh server accept port forwarding requests?
