I don't know about MS Proxy, but with any other firewall you need to make
special arrangements for FTP. The protocol won't proxy by itself and needs a
helper proxy. This is true when using the Cisco PIX firewall, Checkpoint
firewall and Linux with IPFW. There are a few other protocols that won't
proxy, such as IRC.

Subject: [expert] connecting mdk 6.1 to ms outlook server
I posted this a while back and sort of got off track.
I have a linux box at work and I'm trying to get it to ftp thru the MS proxy
machine..
Had no luck. 2 days ago, an internet company brought another linux box in
for real time
video streaming output to the net. They ( who are better at linux than I am
) had the
same EXACT problems. They could not break out of the firewall.
The consensus is that since the linux box's are not "logging" into the NT
server, it
doesn't see them.. Can anyone tell me if samba will accomplish this, or do I
need
something else?? I'm sure someone can log onto an NT server using Linux..
( gotta be! )
Thanks
Alan
