StrictHost property
Determines if secondary FTP connection is restricted to same host as primary.
Type
A Boolean value. When set to True forces wodFtpDLX to connect data connection to then same address as in Hostname property.Syntax
object.StrictHost[= value]
The StrictHost(object,value) syntax has these parts:
| object | An expression evaluating to an object of type wodFtpDLX. |
| value | A Boolean value. |
Remarks
StrictHost property determines if secondary (data) connection is restricted only to same host as defined in
Hostname property, or wodFtpDLX should connect to whatever was returned in reply to PASV command from the server. This property is used only with
Passive transfers.
By default, this property is set to
False, meaning wodFtpDLX will connect to any IP address that server pointed it to. However, this can cause problems with some firewalled servers who show invalid IP address in PASV response.
If you set StrictHost property to
True - wodFtpDLX will ignore IP address received with PASV response, and connect to same address as specified in Hostname property. Obviously - site to site (FXP) transfers will not work in that case.
