squid and CuteFTP or BPFTP

[Martin Dobias]

Hi

I am trying to use CuteFTP or BulletProofFTP after my Squid proxy but
getting the error of time out while waiting for welcome message
It seems that Squid is posting no welcome message when connection over
it is initialized

CuteFTP and BulletProofFTP needs this message to continue with
connecting

Can anyone help me how to configure the Squid to send welcome message or
CuteFTP of BulletProofFTP not to wait for that message?
Netscape nad Microsoft browsers works fine, no such errors

Thanx Martin

Squid isn't a FTP proxy. It works with Browser because they use HTTP
and HTML. You can't use regular FTP software.
To solve this I am using delegate which can act as a proxy for FTP,
POP3, SMTP, NNTP and others... (http://wall.etl.go.jp/delegate/)

You can't. They only communicate with the FTP protocol. Squid can
only accept connections with the HTTP protocol.

Netscape and Microsoft use HTTP protocol to talk to a proxy, even for
FTP URLs.

Squid simply can't do what you are asking here.
