FTP should support external IP address and port range
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: NET-285
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-285
Project: Commons Net
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Binoy Joseph
If you use FTP tools like FileZilla, you see that in Active mode,
the external IP address (when client has multiple network cards) and
port range (when client has firewall setup) are supported.
This is very essential for an enterprise class FTP client.
I see that a small modification in FTPClient's _openDataConnection_() method
will support all this.
_serverSocketFactory_.createServerSocket(0, 1, getLocalAddress());
Can I also go ahead creating a patch for this?
