Just a note about FTP access in general, not specific to your problem: You need to allow TCP "Destination" ports 20 & 21. That would be "going out", not "coming from". Port 21 is the FTP control port, and port 20 is the FTP data port. You should plug that incoming FTP hole you created, if you don't need it.
