Description:
------------
I'm trying to use streams to write a data file to an FTP server with a somewhat broken setup -- it understands `EPSV`, but is behind a NAT that doesn't.  So even though the `EPSV` succeeds, the data connection (and thus the `fopen`) fails because the router didn't set up a NAT entry for the data port.

This would not be a problem if i could tell PHP to skip `EPSV` and just use `PASV` instead (which works fine).  As it stands now, i instead have to either avoid streams, or write my own version of the FTP wrapper.

Have you tried using the FTP functions? It looks like ftp_pasv() only attempts EPSV with an IPv6 connection.

That's what i meant by "avoiding streams". I'm having to use the ftp_ functions instead.

The goal was to be able to hand the code a URL (which, ideally, could be any destination for which there's a stream wrapper registered), and have it put the file there. The need to avoid EPSV is getting in the way of that.

Just hit this one.

Would it be possible, either to

- try EPSV and switch to PSV on failure like cURL
- allow setting the mode as a context option
