[jira] Closed: (FTPSERVER-53) Support specifying a range of passive
ports
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FTPSERVER-53?page=all ]
Niklas Gustavsson closed FTPSERVER-53.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Assignee: Niklas Gustavsson
Fixed. The current implementation is pretty naive but does the job. It supports listing a port values (as before) as well as both closed and open ended ranges. So, for example:
1,2,3
1-3
-3
1,2,3-8

> 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.)
