Proxy issue

faraco · Post by **faraco** » Mon May 22, 2006 2:36 pm

I'm trying to connect an external ftp host connect through a proxy.

When using WS FTP, I can connect using the following firewall type setting: "USER remoteID@remoteHost fireID" but I can't find the same setting in CoreFTP.

There is any way to workaround this?

Regards,
Pedro Faraco.

When trying to connect using the "transparent" type, the following message is displayed but directories are not listed:

Code: Select all

Resolving ftp.blablabla.net, via proxy &#40;proxy.proxyco.com&#41;...  
Connect socket #980 to 192.85.47.87, port 21 &#40;to 21&#41;...

USER faraco  
220 Secure Gateway FTP server ready.

Any hint?

Thanks for your help.

Sorry CP, but I'm pretty sure I need to authenticate against the proxy (in fact this is the only way I could connect using WS_FTP).

But, anyway, this is the log when trying to connect the way you suggested:

Code: Select all

esolving ftp.blablabla.net, via proxy &#40;proxy.proxyco.com&#41;...  
Connect socket #516 to 192.85.47.87, port 21 &#40;to 21&#41;...
220 Secure Gateway FTP server ready.  
USER faraco@ftp.blablabla.net  
331 Password required for destination user 'faraco'.  
PASS **********  
332 Enter Password &#40;use the 'account <text>' or 'quote acct <text>' command to respond&#41;  
SYST  
530 Command not valid until authentication is complete

PORT 198,132,174,201,94,171  
530 Command not valid until authentication is complete  
Error loading directory...

And nothing happens...

Thanks again for the help.

I'm a little bit confused. What do you mean with "Try restoring the proxy settings to what they were before using the transparent method."?

I've tried tons of combinations before I opened this topic. Is there any particular setting that you want me to log and paste here? Please, let me know.

The build is 1447.3. Should I upgrade?

Regards.

The answer is the same:

Code: Select all

Resolving ftp.blablabla.net, via proxy &#40;proxy.proxyco.com&#41;...  
Connect socket #536 to 192.85.47.83, port 21 &#40;to 21&#41;...

USER faraco@ftp.blablabla.net  
220 Secure Gateway FTP server ready.

And it stops here. No directory is listed.

Thanks.

Don't know if it can help you but here are the screnshots of WS FTP settings that actually works for me.
