No, this is a requirement for FTP , ftp can't figure out what domain you
are accessing , it's not part of the ftp protocol, when you log in as a
user , it uses the username to figure out what site you are accessing, but
anonymous has no username, it has no way to determine what doman on the IP
it is supposed to be accessing....
