Can you use a regular ftp client in PASV mode to connect to dove.synchro.net and successfully get a directory listing? If not, you need to solve that first. qnet-ftp.js (the script used by default for outbound QWK/REP packet transfers) uses "passive" (PASV) FTP by default, so doesn't require any forwarded-ports or special NAT handling (we're talking about an *outbound* connection from your system to mine).
