Re: [twsocket] FTP Timeout Problem

2011-04-27 Thread Dave Baxter
Passive mode *Should not* need any firewall hole poking, at the Client
end.

That's the beauty of Passive mode!  The client only ever makes outgoing
connections, it never has to receive an incoming one.  Any half decent
firewall or NAT router, will handle all that transparently.  It's worth
checking that Win7's own firewall doesnt block outgoing requests from
*unknown* apps though.

But yes you *will* most certainly need to explicitly perforate the
firewall at the Server end, for all ports, and port ranges the FTP
server will ever use.

Regards.

That is correct for normal FTP, where the router can read the control
channel and check the internal IP address and translate it to an external
address, but not for SSL since the control connection is encrypted and
can not be changed.  This is why FTP servers behind NAT are trouble.

The code in the unit where such line is included is intended to be compiled 
using the USE_SSL symbol defined at the project level. The line is there to 
trigger a compilation error should the user forgot to define the symbol.

You have to define use_ssl on your project option and rebuild all.
