Great! If you need anything further, please let me know. > Support specifying a range of passive ports > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: FTPSERVER-53 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FTPSERVER-53 > Project: FtpServer > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Clinton Foster > Assigned To: Niklas Gustavsson > > The config.data-connection.passive.ports configuration parameter allows > specifying either 0 (any available port) or a comma-separated list of ports. > But passive mode is increasingly becoming the standard these days, and it > isn't practical to specify all the ports needed for a reasonable number of > simultaneous passive connections in a comma-separated list. I believe most > FTP server administrators expect to be able to specify a range of ports. > It would probably be sufficient to assume if the configuration string > contains a dash, it specifies a range instead of a list. Even better would be > to allow a comma-separated list of multiple ranges and/or individual ports, > e.g. 1025-2025,5055-6000,2323. But initially I think it would be sufficient > to support only a single range. In other words, if the value contains a dash > anywhere in the string, assume it is a range of ports. (If multiple ranges > are needed, support for this could easily be added later without breaking > existing configurations.) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
