Indy 9 TIdFTPServer already supports PASV.  You do not need to implement it
yourself.  If you are trying to customize the IP/port that is sent to the
client, instead of using the default values that TIdFTPServer automatically
calculates, then you can use the OnPASV event for that, ie:

    procedure TForm1.IdFTPServer1Pasv(ASender: TIdFTPServerThread; var VIP :
String; var VPort : Word);
    begin
        VIP := 'Whatever IP address the client should connect to';
        VPort := WhateverPortNumberTheClientShouldConnectTo;
    end;

About the only time you would ever want to customize the IP/port manually is
if your server machine is running being a router with port forwarding
enabled, since the client will connect to the router directly instead of the
server and thus needs to know the router's IP/port instead of the server's.
