Is it possible to specify which port to use as the outbound port on a connection? I have the IP address and port number for the computer I'm trying to connect to (not listening for), but it's expecting my connection on a certain port.
Specifically, I'm trying to write an FTP host, and I'm trying to implement the PORT command. From everything I've read, the client supplies the IP address and port number for where I'm supposed to connect to send it data (like a LISTing), and it's expecting me to connect over port 20. If anyone is familiar with FTP and can tell me whether this is true or not, whether I really need to go out on port 20, I'd appreciate it, as well. Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
