          Components: Transports

There is a firewall between the FTP Gateway and the FTP server.
The firewall rebooted, cleans the FTP session tables.
The socket used used for FTP communication are set with a timeout of 0 (indefinite) the client theads does not get any communication exception, but it does not get any answer either => the thread get indefinitely stuck. The server must be rebooted.
There is to my knowledge no way to configure a timeout in the "org.jboss.internal.soa.util.EdtFtpImpl" class.

Suggested workaround/patch :
  Use a System property to set the value :
Add the following code :

                int timeOut = Integer.getInteger("jboss.esb.socket.timeout", -1);
		if (timeOut>=0) {
			try {
				m_oConn.setTimeout(timeOut);
			} catch (IOException e) {
				throw new RemoteFileSystemException("Failed while setting timeout=" + timeOut, e);
			}
			_logger.debug("TimeOut socket FTP=" + timeOut);
		}

After the checkParms() invocation  inside the private void initialize(boolean ...) method

Same issue with the SFTP client, I guess (I am not using it though).

Thanks.
