I think the problem is caused by a lack of a keep-alive process.
Filezilla v2.x had this, but it seemed to disappear in v3. However, the
current version (3.2.7) is promoted as having this feature -
http://filezilla-project.org/client_features.php NOTE: there is a linux
version, too although I haven't used it.
I've only installed 3.2.7 today, so can't comment on the effectiveness
of the keep-alive.
I still recommend Filezilla - I use it at work and it's never let me down.

what is a good ftp client for windoze ?
From memory, which could be faulty,
I used ftppro on Win95. It still seems to be around.

Does anyone have recommendations for FTP clients for Linux?
I use pftp at the command line...but others prefer something prettier.

I have a user with Filezilla, since he moved ISP, his Filezilla times
out
with my ProFTPd on Centos (but, it worked till now with the former ISP)
googling brings similar issues elsewhere;
increasing timeout in Filezilla didn't help
I can log to the ProFTPd from command line, and, upload with no issues
I suspect the issue is with Filezilla rather than at the ProFTPd end ?
