About the only thing I can think of that would allow any form of mechanism
to share multiple internal ftp servers from a single external ip address
would be something like the ftp-gw that was included in the old TIS "FWTK"
(Fire Wall Tool Kit). You first FTP into ftp-gw (it listens on the standard
ftp port) and then for the username, you use "username@hostname_or_address"
and it redirects your ftp session to that internal ftp server. Works well
for outbound ftp proxy also.

Subject: Re: [suse-security] host header mechanism for ftp servers?
i guess not. since ftp doesnt have any mechanism like http-headers or so
forth.
you connect to an ip basically, and send user/pass and then you are logged
in. no other authentication or extra data can be sent for telling in what
ftp server/subsite you want to login ....
i dont know of any standard that ftp could achieve such thing...
cheers,

Hi Is there an ftp server / ftp reverse proxy being capable of resolving multiple domains a similar way http servers do? I have only 1 public IP address and I should run two different ftp server boxes. Thanks & regards philipp
