Ok, now I see that the proxy is really transparent. Unfortunately, currently lftp always adds site name in USER command when working with ftp proxy. I think a modification of lftp is required to make it work with such transparent proxies. Please check whether the proxy has an explicit mode (not transparent). If so, specify the port it listens to in explicit mode. -- Alexander.
