" I can't log into the remote server in the first place" --------------------- Tom. I, too am behind a MS Winsock Proxy server and I can't get through it with any of my RH boxes, nor my HP-UX boxes. I sent a question to the list a while back and nothing that was sent back worked. There was a couple of 3rd party utilities that were suggested, but I couldn't get any to work. I gave up and used a MS box for any ftp's outside of our network. If you have better luck, I would be interested in the outcome.
