I'm creating an application that downloads updates from an ftp site using

The weird thing is, ftp still works fine.
This sounds like a passive FTP problem; that is, you have to enable
passive FTP to FTP behind a NAT. However, looking at the CURL man
page it seems that passive FTP is enabled by default. Hmmmm.
My next step would be to get a packet trace of both the "ftp" and
"curl" operations and see where they diverge.
