> 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?
