I found a way to get all IP addresses of all interfaces

Which one is the one to use?
You said you needed the local address to create a port command for
an ftp client. Why not ask the control socket (I suppose you have
one?) for it's local name?
Check out getsockname().
This is the correct solution. In a multihomed environment,
only the connected socket knows the correct local protocol address
for the corresponding connection. Anything that doesn't ultimately
get the local address from the connected socket is broken.
