Connecting to FTP repository fails with 550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel

New Pleskian
Hi,

we run several Plesk 11 servers and upgraded some of them to Plesk 12. After the upgrade we got problems (on all Plesk 12 machines) to connect to our backup server via TLS.
The backup server is a ProFTP that did his job pretty well so far. The interface throws the unspecific error:

Transport error: unable to list directory: Curl error: Login denied

I simulated the handshake with:
Code:
curl -v -k --ftp-ssl *IP*:2121 --user user:password --upload-file /usr/local/psa/PMM/tmp/testfile

and got:

Code:
* Connected to **** (*IP*) port 2121 (#0)
* Server auth using Basic with user 'user'
> PUT /testfile HTTP/1.1
> Authorization: Basic 
> User-Agent: curl/7.26.0
> Host: *IP*:2121

220 ProFTPD 1.3.4d Server (*HOSTNAME* FTP Server) [::ffff:*IP*]
550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel
550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel
550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel
...

It seems that Plesk does not communicate to the ftp server properly.

Some of the relevant settings of the ftp server:

The ftp server running behind a firewall and listening to port 21. External port is forwarded to port 21 correctly. (connection with ftp program works flawlessly)

IdentLookups off

Is there a solution (or upcoming bug fix) for this problem? Any idea?

Thanks in advance
