One of the FTP servers on Redhat use to default to requiring that clients have a reverse DNS entry. It was a simple edit of the config file to disable that requirement. I've no idea why it was left as a default. As for no route to host -- no idea. Maybe a firewall in the way? Sounds like two different problems -- sort the reverse DNS first. Also is the no route error occurring when the data channel would be opened? i.e. On a fetch or "dir" command. If so try passive mode FTP. I think usually an entry in /etc/hosts for the clients IP address will deal with the lack of reverse DNS. It should be logging all this nicely in /var/log, so you should see what IP address it saw, and other such complaints.
