Our FTP server verifies the name of a client computer by looking
it up via DNS from the client computer's IP address. If that name
can't be found or is not the same as that specified in the FTP
connection-request, then the connection is denied.
I suggest that you connect to our FTP server from a computer whose name
is known to the outside world.
