Bogdan Drozdowski updated NET-468: ---------------------------------- Attachment: (was: sockclient-proxy2.diff) > Request for native support for socks proxy routing with Commons net FTP > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NET-468 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NET-468 > Project: Commons Net > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: FTP > Affects Versions: 1.4, 2.0, 3.0.1, 3.1 > Environment: We use commons net in out products for all > communication to an FTP server. OS : All. No other environment specifications. > Reporter: Ramya Rajendiran > Attachments: sockclient-proxy3.diff > > > Commons net currently does not natively support connection to an FTP server > via a socks proxy. The only way of achieving this would be to work at the > socket level as observed here > http://wiki.apache.org/commons/Net/FrequentlyAskedQuestions. (by setting JVM > properties socksProxyPort and socksProxyPortHost) > However, a major side effect of this all connections on this JVM will go > through the socks proxy since this setting is at the JVM level. This is > sometimes undesirable as the business requirements are such that only certain > applications on the JVM need to go through the socks proxy. There are no > existing workarounds to conditionally prevent other applications to not be > routed through the socks proxy. This makes our application which consumes the > commons net unusable for such businesses. > Providing native support for socks proxy with commons net for FTP, will go a > long way in supporting such common scenarios and business continuity. > Therefore raising this enhancement request. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
