Cannot connect to FTPS server outside

Hello.

 

I've got a small issue, I cannot connect to an external FTPS server which use 21 port for PASV and dynamic from 50000 to 55000. I've tried to use session-helper, and also this workaround with inverted directions: http://kb.fortinet.com/kb/documentLink.do?externalID=FD32835

but it always timeouts. Is there any feature for this or procedure how to pass this traffic? On the firewall policies for this testing I allow all traffic (ANY services) on both directions.

 

Thanks in advance.

Why not create a single policy with your PC as the source, the destination the FTPS server, and any/any, and place it at the top. If/When that works, start narrowing things down until it breaks. If the any/any fails, then you know you need to look elsewhere (not the policy) for the solution.
