Close.
The main possible difference I can see is the use of passive
connections - could be that one of them uses them and the other
doesn't and that could make the whole difference.
Try to make the clients more verbose, or sniff the traffic with
Wireshark (use "follow TCP connection" to get a very easy-to-read
trace of the command stream).
