Can't get a diretory listing from FTP in GUI client


I am the proud owner of a virtual server. It runs Debian Lenny.
Kernel 2.6.26-2-686
The ftp server is in.ftpd
The ftp server is started thru /etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd

When I start a session using ncftp client (command line) I get a listing all right. When I start an FTP session thru Krusader, I can connect, I can upload and download files, change directories, but I never get a directory listing.
Same thing happens when I access the FTP site using Firefox (Iceweasel).

I have tried this from 4 or 5 machines, all the same result. I do have a lot of other machines running various flavours of Debian, including Lenny, but no problems at all. I can access those machines with Opera, Firefox and Krusader and get directory listings.

These are the log files from the FTP server:
The first file is CORRECT using ncftp client:
