Please make sure you are using passive FTP mode.  An explanation of
the difference between passive and active FTP mode is here:

  http://www.slacksite.com/other/ftp.html#active

Our FTP server at ftp.unidata.ucar.edu is up and running with 9
downloads from external sites in the last 6 minutes.

Here is a mirror site in Japan:
