Hi.

I have an issue with apache FtpServer.
It's set to use passive mode, and it looks like all of the ports are being 
used, which stops any new connections from being connected and the whole ftp 
server just hangs. If you try to connect it just reaches time out.

Here what I get after this happens, in the log:

And it's just keeps going on like that.

I have about 1000 connections every 5 minutes which creates about 35gb of daily 
incoming traffic, so I think I'm hitting the limit of the apache FtpServer. How 
can I avoid it? Is there a workaround? 

Also, since only one connection is allowed per port, is there a way to 
virtually increase the number of ports to allow more simultaneous connections?

Thanks.
