Same problem on Ubuntu 10.04 server with vsftpd. I'm using a Cisco 1811 router with ports 20 and 21 statically NATed and a NAT pool for the PASV ports. This works fine in standard FTP mode, but when I switch to PASV mode in FTPES, it uses a port outside the range specified by the min/max port settings. The router is NOT doing any firewall functions or interfering with packets in any way. I am a network engineer by trade, so I am confident of this.

I have observed this same behavior connecting to the server from a host inside the router on the same subnet, and of course, the connection works fine because the port is accessible from the inside, but the port requested is still outside the range specified in vsftpd.conf when in FTPS mode.

I will post here if I find any more info.
