I honestly dont' think that is possible with the current system. You can redirect to a port. The best you can do is if people are doing this from web to ftp is:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=ftp://ftp.domain.tdl:1">

At this point you coud have used John's php code. I don't think their is a easy solution for you. You could do port fowarding but that is done at the router. I assume the ftp server has sometype of DHCP connection to the internet.

It IS possible and we have used in different way but it possible to set up a VPN at your colo and at the ftp server and you can give the ftp server a static ip through the VPN.
