Proftp can't connect to ftp client.

Hi I am running CentOS release 5.5 (Final) with PROFTP installed.

I am able to connect to the ftp server from local, but when I try it from dream weaver CS5 it can't connect to the server.
I ran a port scan and 21 seems to be open:
PORT STATE SERVICE
21/tcp open ftp
22/tcp open ssh
53/tcp open domain
80/tcp open http
106/tcp open pop3pw
110/tcp open pop3
143/tcp open imap
443/tcp open https
993/tcp open imaps
995/tcp open pop3s
3306/tcp open mysql
8443/tcp open https-alt

how can I fixed this issue?

Greetingz!

Thanks for the nmap scan output. It seems as though the FTP port is not being filtered, so iptables shouldn't be a concern.

For starters I would suggest reading the man page and maybe googling around a bit. How you plan to access the ftp server is important (and something you neglected to mention; either anonymously or via an actual user. You need to make sure they're not in /etc/ftpusers.

here is the users in etc/ftpusers:
adm

uucp
operator
games
gopher
nobody
rpm
