FTP requires the use of two sockets. One for the command channel and
one for the data channel. Your attempt to establish the data channel is
being blocked. Most likely your firewall is configured to block
outbound connections to arbitrary ports.
You will need to configure Kermit to use an HTTP Proxy Server or SOCKS.
