VRF and FTP Server

[rakeshsharma3000]

I have a weird problem with VRF and FTP Server. I have a lab setup whereby two VRFs Client1 and Client2 are created. Both the VRFs are in the same subnet. I have configured FTP-Server and TFTP-Server on this router. TFTP-Server works perfectly fine from both the networks. But for FTP-Server, I can login in to the FTP Server and authenticate positively. But when I try to do listing of directory, it gives a error "can't bind data".

The web access to this router also works perfectly fine.

Any idea why FTP fails.

Before configuring vrf, the FTP server did work fine.

Any idea why. here's the config :

interface FastEthernet0/0.371

description Client1

encapsulation dot1Q 371

ip vrf forwarding client1

ip address 10.0.1.1 255.255.255.0

!

interface FastEthernet0/0.372

description Client2

encapsulation dot1Q 372

ip vrf forwarding client2

ip address 10.0.1.1 255.255.255.0

!

I have tried passive mode and still it does not work. My test without VRFs works fine with active and passive mode. But with VRFs, it gives error 425. I am testing from a PC in the specific vlan/vrf to its interface on the router.

I am running on 2600 XM series router with c2600-advsecurityk9-mz.123-3f.bin image.

I'd still try it with everything in the same vrf to make sure that's going to work first. If that doesn't, TAC should have some kind of definitive answer.
