The Problem is, that if I use an control port different to 21, my Router/NAT
will not recognize, that FTP-Transfer is initiated and therefore it won´t
open the all data-ports when curl starts the data-connection.

But I must use different control-ports to reach specific servers on the
other site (same WAN-IP there).

I´ve seen such Data-Port-Range-Limit in the "Todo List" ... is there any
chance, that this will be implemented in the near future ?

Thx for your Help
