Is it possible to specify which ports Zope er allowed to use for passive ftp (like you edit 'ftpaccess' for other ftp servers), so that we can reconfigure the firewall for these ports? If not, are there any other way of solving this?...except for modify ftp source code.
Actually, I'd be interested in even hearing ways to solve this problem that DO involve modifying the source code... I dug into the FTPServer.py code a while back to try to tackle this very problem and didn't see where the ports were being specified. Unfortunately, other matters became a bit more pressing. I'd be willing to hack up a way to set the passive ftp ports if someone would orient me a bit... -r
