Subject: WWW Form Bug Report: "ftp proxy fails from netscape" on SunOS 4.xSunOS

Submitter: woods@planix.com
Operating system: SunOS 4.xSunOS, version: 4.1.1_U1
Version of Apache Used: 1.1B4
Extra Modules used: BASIC+ asis_module imap_module action_module agent_log_module referer_log_module cern_meta_module env_module anon_auth_module status_module info_module dbm_auth_module digest_module cookies_module proxy_module  
URL exhibiting problem: 

Symptoms:
--
When I set the FTP proxy in Netscape-3.0b4 to point
at the host and port I'm running Apache-1.1b4 with
the proxy module, I get the following error when
trying to access any URL with "ftp://"

	Proxy Error
	
	The proxy server could not handle this request. 
	
	Reason: Could not connect to remote machine 

In all cases the machine running Apache can most
definitely contact the target host's ftp server.

Similar problems seem to occur for other protocols,
including gopher.

The HTTP proxy seems to work very well otherwise.
