Major Description
We are using a week old snapshot from Ftpserver (it seems a bit newer than the 1.0.1 freeze). One of our clients reported that the data connection was being kept open for a long time ... They are using a propietary client its name I cannot remember and it was an SSL data connection in passive mode.
After checking this using a windows Filezilla client and a Linux server running ftpserver (on top of Sun Java Application Server 9) we noticed that the FTP Server had several sockets in CLOSE_WAIT state. At the client side, the state was FIN_WAIT_2.
To my mind , this could be related with the Socket leaking bug that was previously reported with SSL passive connections or its workaround although it might be SJAS fault or-who-knows. Since we don't have a linux machine available for testing I don't know what the real problem is.
