Bogdan Drozdowski updated NET-468:
----------------------------------
Attachment: sockclient-proxy3.diff
No, I didn't use the SVN diff command to create the patch. I prefer to keep my
working copy clean, so I copy the files I wish to modify somewhere else and
perform a "diff -buraN" command. To apply the patch, use the "patch" utility,
common in many Linux distributions. The command will be something similar to
{code}patch -F20 -p0 < /path/to/sockclient-proxy2.diff{code}
(run in the directory that contains the "src" directory). If that's a problem,
I can use "svn diff".
The previous patch had an error - the test wasn't in src/test. Use the third
version I've just attached.
> Request for native support for socks proxy routing with Commons net FTP
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NET-468
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-468
> Project: Commons Net
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: FTP
> Affects Versions: 1.4, 2.0, 3.0.1, 3.1
> Environment: We use commons net in out products for all
> communication to an FTP server. OS : All. No other environment specifications.
> Reporter: Ramya Rajendiran
> Attachments: sockclient-proxy3.diff
>
>
> Commons net currently does not natively support connection to an FTP server
> via a socks proxy. The only way of achieving this would be to work at the
> socket level as observed here
> http://wiki.apache.org/commons/Net/FrequentlyAskedQuestions. (by setting JVM
> properties socksProxyPort and socksProxyPortHost)
> However, a major side effect of this all connections on this JVM will go
> through the socks proxy since this setting is at the JVM level. This is
> sometimes undesirable as the business requirements are such that only certain
> applications on the JVM need to go through the socks proxy. There are no
> existing workarounds to conditionally prevent other applications to not be
> routed through the socks proxy. This makes our application which consumes the
> commons net unusable for such businesses.
> Providing native support for socks proxy with commons net for FTP, will go a
> long way in supporting such common scenarios and business continuity.
> Therefore raising this enhancement request.
