Any clues as to why this maybe happening.
Earlier versions of gftp didn't give me this problem.
The same issue for 2.0.16 version is the same way.

You have 5376 in the port field, which is the wrong port to use for FTP. If you
leave the port field blank, and if you are using the FTP protocol, it will
default to port 21.

Brian,

I didn't put 5376 in the port field. The program did that. I specified port 21 in the GUI. See gftprc file below:
