I'm not seeing the problem yet, so a couple more questions:
1) What happens if you run:
$ ncftpls -F ftp://address@hidden:2121/
- or -
$ ncftpls -E ftp://address@hidden:2121/
2) Try running this:
$ ncftp ftp://address@hidden:2121/
then attach the ~/.ncftp/trace file to your reply.
Do you know what the remote FTP server is?
...Thanks,
...Ken
