Default Site to Site Transfer Not Completing...

I am behind a Sonicwall FW (TZ200N). I have allowed (unchecked) for ftp bounce attack protection as originally this was showing up in the logs. After clear it, there were no further indications in the log file of any alerts or dropped packets. I was working with Sonicwall TS and the packet-capture log shows all requests as being accepted and acknowledged. Nothing is being dropped or rejected. I worked with SW TS for over an hour trying to resolve the issue. All other attempts for find an issue with the SW as the cause were unsuccessful and their conclusion is that the problem is not a SW issue. I can't 100% disagree as even with all security services shut down, the transfer never completed.

I can without issue, upload and download to/from either ftp server. PC <--> FTP works...

From what I see, the process starts and moves along as the file is created on the destination server, but the process STOPS cold on the [R]STOR filename.ext. Below is the log for each try.

For this example, I am trying to move one flat file (license.txt) from site to site.

This sequence keeps repeating. I have tried non-passive mode with no avail.

On the destination side, the file (license.txt) is created (size 0) and a .pureftp-upload.xxxxx file is also created.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

any chance you could move either of ftp servers to port other than 21
or access to ftp server's logs to see the commands they get?

i suspect your firewall is silently modifying PORT command and changing IP of the other server to your IP.

both servers are godaddy..... and so I doubt much chance of changing ports. And as far as the FW, the techs tweaked and turned all they could and nothing seemed to make any difference.
I also went in under site-manager on transfer and tried every combination with the passive and non-passive settings and still got nothing to happen.

I really wish I could get this working as it would make migrating some 9 WP sites effortless. I am certainly open for suggestions to try to resolve and or isolate the problem.

As it stands now, cannot be sure if it is a Godaddy issue, a settings issue, or something else on my end. Is there a way to test (public ftp's) that would assure me that my settings are correct and that site to site does work. Right now tooooo many variables that could be causing the problem. If one could reduce the number of unknowns, might have a better shot at resolving.

any chance you could connect to those sites outside of your current setup to eliminate possibility that it's the firewall?

also i see that both sites have TLS in the welcome message, have you tried enabling encryption so that your firewall can't see raw ftp commands and mess with them?

maybe create a limited account so i can test it from my known working setup?
