Is there a way to get zftp to connect using a non-standard port? I
have a special-purpose FTP server sitting on a port other than 21,
and I'd like to access it via zftp.
Thanks in advance.

No, that's never been added; there was never any call. Part of the
problem is that zftp was specifically written to avoid needing options
to the commands.

Well, instead of an option, how about an optional port appended to
the host after a colon. If so, then either of the two following
items could work:
host
host:port
I could come up with a suitable patch for implementing this capability,
if anyone is interested.

I seem to recall the colon causing problems for IPv6 users. Not sure
what ever became of that.

I'm interested, and I don't care if it's host:port or some other method. I
would eagerly use zftp to get files in and out of my zope servers.
It seems like zfopen already takes an option (although it has tricky
semantics). If the port choice were going to become an option, I'd
obviously like -p which I know from scp/ncftp.
