Both client and server have a libsdp.conf file.
Do they both have the above content?

(It should, but your comment above suggests only one libsdp.conf
file is being used.)

I'll assume "ping" does work.

My next suggestion is to top the FTP server and manually invoke
it to listen on a different port (proftpd takes -p <PORT> parameter):
	/etc/init.d/proftpd stop
	LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/lib64/libsdp.so proftpd -p 20022

Using another login, confirm the ftp server is listening on 
port 20022 (netstat -a) and is using SDP (cat /proc/<PID>/maps 
or something like that).

Then from the client, try to talk to that server with
	LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/lib64/libsdp.so ftp 192.168.2.99 20022

Sorry - I don't understand that either.
If my above suggestion doesn't work, perhaps try a different
ftp server or different ftp client?
