1444	Custom PASV settings for the server	thejcab	codesquid	"When running a FTP server from behind a NAT router, 
you need to be able to specify to the server which IP 
address to use for PASV transfers. Cannot use the IP 
address from the socket because that IP address is 
only valid within the local network, and is 
inaccessible from the other side of the router.

So, this patch allows you to configure:

- Wether the IP address is customized.
- The actual IP address.
- A range of ports that will be used in a rotating 
fashion.

The range of ports is necessary because, in order to 
be able to forward connection requests to local 
machnes, the router needs to know those ports. You 
could always tell the router to forward all ports 1 to 
65535, but that's hardly appropriate.

I have this updated server currently running at:

ftp://anonymous@home.JCABs-Rumblings.com

The files there are temporary Spirit (another 
SourceForge project) tests. In case you were curious.

If you want to see what the resulting server looks 
like, I put it here for download:
