Hi all folks,
sometime I try to fetch packages through a firewall/proxy. Http works well, but 
ftp does not.
The environment variables http_proxy, https_proxy, ftp_proxy are set to the 
proxy address.

But all the time I try to fetch via ftp I find the target address (Foreign 
Address) with netstat,
with http I find the proxy address. The ftp connect hangs until a timeout, 
after some minutes.

"netstat -a" for a ftp fetch:
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0      0  6.1.159.239.49950      ftp.cerias.purdu.ftp   SYN_SENT

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0      0  6.1.159.239.49942      util9.math.uh.ed.ftp   SYN_SENT

"netstat -a"  for a http fetch:
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0      0  6.1.159.239.49961      webproxy....           ESTABLISHED

"netstat -a" for a ftp connection (manually operated): 
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address        (state)
tcp4       0      0  6.1.159.239.49956      ftpproxy....           ESTABLISHED

Does someone know how MacPorts connect to the ftp proxy, how ftp is called by 
MacPorts.
Manually I use "ftp ftpproxy" and for the User Prompt I enter "[EMAIL 
PROTECTED]" and
for the password prompt "my mail address". This works well, with OS X, Linux 
and WXP.

Any idea what's going wrong?!
Thanks for any help,
Lutz
