Hi,

I have routing set up to push everything from port 21 to the squid proxy port. This doesn't seem to work even with IE using ftp on Windows. However on linux FireFox works fine when I configure it to use the proxy with ftp connections. It also seems to work fine with wget, although using gFTP seems to have some issues. I was hoping to use squid to block some ftp sites. Is there any way to do this?
Only if you block port 21 and tell the browsers to use squid as FTP proxy. squid does FTP proxing via HTTP, it is not a true FTP proxy (but such proxies exist!). Most current FTP client can operate via a HTTP proxy in the download direction; uploads are a different issue. This should be ok for the occasional driver download; if you use FTP seriously you should look for a dedicated FTP proxy program.

HTH,
Jakob Curdes


frox is the FTP proxy I'd recommend.
