Summary: ftplib broken passive mode
Initial Comment:
(This only applies when using passive FTP)
ftplib.py assumes that the 227 response will contain
an address and port specification in the form of
(h1,h2,h3,h4,p1,p2) -- note the parentheses. In fact,
RFC 959 does not explicitly specify the parentheses,
and gives an example conversation that includes a 227
response with no parentheses.
ftplib.py throws an exception when talking to an FTP
server that does not format the 227 response with
parentheses (not uncommon, apparently).
The parse227 function should be updated to do something
such as the following:
_parse227_re = re.compile('\d+,\d+,\d+,\d+,\d+,\d+')
def parse227(resp):
'''Parse the '227' response for a PASV request.
Raises error_proto if it does not contain
'(h1,h2,h3,h4,p1,p2)'
Return ('host.addr.as.numbers', port#)
tuple.'''
if resp[:3] <> '227':
raise error_reply, resp
m = _parse227_re.search(resp)
if m is None:
raise error_proto, resp
numbers = string.split(m.group(), ',')
if len(numbers) <> 6:
raise error_proto, resp
host = string.join(numbers[:4], '.')
port = (string.atoi(numbers[4]) << 8) +
string.atoi(numbers[5])
return host, port
