Magda,

You might try just one email next time.  We're not used to very many messages 
coming from this list.  :-)

You can't start ftp.proxy from the command line, which is why you got the 
"Socket operation on non-socket" error.  You need to start it from xinetd.  
Below is a sample configuration snippit, which you could put in 
/etc/xinetd.conf or in a separate file /etc/xinetd.d/ftpproxy.

service ftpproxy
{
        disable = no
        socket_type = stream
        wait = no
        user = nobody
        server = /usr/local/sbin/ftp.proxy
        server_args = my.server.com
}

Proxying different servers on different ports or IP addresses is done within 
your xinetd configuration.  Output is written to syslog.

As for your 250 users, you'll need to write an ACP (access control program), 
which can be anything from simple Perl script that looks for users in a clear 
text file to a compiled binary that searches multiple databases.  I have 
written one that works against an LDAP directory, if you're interested.

All of this information is available in the man page 
(http://ftpproxy.org/html/ftp.proxy-1.html) and in the FAQ 
(http://ftpproxy.org/faq/).
