Squid *can* gateway FTP across an http-only connection to the internal net that's behind the proxy. You may actually connect to the proxy, but your traffic to/from the proxy will be http.

You may install something like ftp-gw (part of the TIS Toolkit) if you want something that proxies FTP. hk:) -- ---------------------------------- I said what I meant; I meant what I said. ---------------------------------- -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/mailing-list/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
