Hello,

Request: configure the max. number of FTP calls to avoid firewall issues
Reason: we face the issue after improving the FTP connectivity in Oct 2024, that FTP Connections can't be established anymore. We're facing timeouts and logs show, that a lot of tries of parallel FTP connections results in firewall reactions and IP banning.

Cause: We might found the cause: XFERS_MAX = 8 as definition in ftp.c

Would it be possible to build a workaround to configure this number via configure file or even via menu?

#define XFERS_MAX 8
static struct {
    gchar *fname;
    gchar *contents;
    const gchar *readptr;
    gsize sizeleft;
} xmits[XFERS_MAX] = {0};
