Squid is not a firewall nor a FTP proxy. It is 'just' a HTTP proxy. Your customer needs either a real FTP proxy (e.g. http://www.suse.de/en/whitepapers/proxy_suite/) or they must open up their firewall to let internal clients go out directly for FTP traffic. > We have a Windows 2000 server OS running on our server computer. > I want to install the Squid in the server here to test my client's scenario > here. > I have the following questions to ask: > > Is that possible the Squid can run in this windows server? Yes, but this will buy you nothing - see above. Cheers, Juri -- Juri Haberland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
