I have a FTP server where a lot of clients connect and pick up files.
If they are interrupted while they are retrieving files (and I don't get the 
disconnected event for the client), then they will stay "connected" and take 
up memory - if I cannot disconnect them.

What exactly do you want me to do to disconnect the DataChannel first ? and 
how do I send an error message to the FTP client ?
