ftpd passive port range patch


The attached patch (against inetutils 1.3.2-19) enables Cygwin ftpd to
support a restricted range of passive mode ports similar to ProFTPD's
PassivePorts option.  Using this version of Cygwin ftpd, I am able to
tunnel all ftp traffic (i.e., both control and all data connections)
through a ssh tunnel.  This is very useful in situations where sftp is
not an option.

Is the Cygwin inetutils maintainer willing to consider this patch for
inclusion in the standard Cygwin package?

Thanks,
Jason
