----------------------------------

Hi, Hope this can be resolved

> 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
>         Attachments: ftpclient_active_portRange_ExtAddress.patch
>
>   Original Estimate: 2h
>  Remaining Estimate: 2h
>
> 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?
