i've applied in the /usr/share/backuppc/lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Ftp.pm the
patch you provide (thanks!).
I also edit $t->{host} occurences (that is used for log messages) in $t->{Host}.

i've tried both using ftp address as Host name and as ClientAliasName,
result is the exactly the same.
Now error is like this:

Last error is "xfer start failed: Can't open connection to
ftp.XXXX.it: Invalid argument".
Now looking to solve this :-D

Regards!
