I have a new CentOS 7.4 (recently upgraded to 7.5) system that I have been struggling with in configuring vsftpd for FTPS Implicit (port 990).
(The latest instructions I've used are at: https://www.unixmen.com/configure-vsftpd-ssltls-centos-7/)

Using Filezilla client, I get:

Error:              GnuTLS error -15: An unexpected TLS packet was received.
Error:              Could not connect to server

Using Core FTP LE:

SL/TLS error - 0, SSL error - 1, error:00000001:lib(0):func(0):reason(1)
SSL Connection not established

Using WinSCP:

TLS connect: error in SSLv2/v3 read server hello A
TLS connect: error in SSLv2/v3 read server hello A
Can't establish TLS connection
Disconnected from server

lftp from a remote Linux:

Fatal error: gnutls_handshake: An unexpected TLS packet was received.

Debugging, I get:
