Re: FTP proxy with authentication

[Alexey Fadyushin <fab s-tunnel com>]

All of the FTP clients I used had the problems whin connected to FTP 
server via SQUID. Requests for up/downloading of files work fine, but 
more complex requests, such as creation of directories, changing access 
rights on the files on FTP server usually fail. I think that if you need 
an FTP proxy that will work with any requests the client may want to 
use, you should use more spicialized proxy, not SQUID, which primarily 
intended for HTTP operations.
