Sorry, I can't understand very well the setup. It looks ambigous.
I can recommend you only the "mini-howto". I don't know for any other
problems related to the masq setups. May be I have to add there only
the info about setting conf/XXX/send_redirects to 0. But you know how
to use it already :)
client# ip route get VIP
real_server# ip route get CLIENT
I think, with 3 tcpdumps it is very easy to find any problems.
The other alternative is filling diagrams with exact and full settings,
etc., etc :) Deeper problems need deeper setup explanation :) Don't
rely on the fact you know what are the actual settings. Check them all
again.

Sorry, no. I don't know for such problems. May be the work
firewall can make problems, so if you can, start the ftp client from
the work firewall host, not behind it. Recommended for NAT firewalls.
Isolate the problem.
