Hello Matus,

You are right, the thing is that our clients are not going to open any other 
port than 20 and 21 for security meassures (or lazyness).

So, if We can't use a dinamic data- port on the destination, passive ftp is 
discarded.

The thing is that with the "ftp_passive off" directive the most of my 
clients don't work at all, just a couple of them demand active ftp and make 
my life a bit more complicated bcz of this deprecated way of ftp-ing.

We are working with highly securized environments that make very difficult 
any kind of modification.

Thank you very much for your time and effort.
Regards

IMHO

that means, if you open FTP control connection to squid, the passive data 
connection to it must come from the same IP as control connection.

That in fact means, you can't use squid for FXP (server-server transfers).

IMHO

that one is still managed by ftp_passive option.
