Or is there a better, simple, command line tool for doing an ftp mirror via squid? I was able to use lftp for this. lftp -c ' set ftp:sync-mode 0 set ftp:proxy http://proxy.my.com:3128 mirror ftp://apt.sw.be/pub/dag/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/ ' The setting that disables synchronous issuing of ftp commands allowed lftp to run several concurrent ftp connections through squid. Nice!
