Virtual hosts

Does FTP server support virtual hosts?

E.g. more than one domain name pointing to a single IP address running one
instance of ftp server

Thanks,

Dan

The FTP protocol does not support virtual hosts as the client does not
send anything corresponding to the Host header in HTTP. Thus, an FTP
server can not know the host to which the client has connected.
