My client application swaps between two FTP servers when errors occur. The second server is still IIS/5 and the logs show that passive ports are always incrementing, not being immediately re-used, and the ICS FTP client software works fine. The passive port pool seems to have been added by 'NGB' but I don't know who that is, or why he decided to re-use ports, there are no relevant comments. Is there any reason why I should not change it to use incrementing ports within the passive pool range? BTW, the port issue effects consecutive downloads as well as uploads.
