[vfs/net] ftp proxy url

[fi...@cirquedigital.com]

Hi,

Does anyone know how I can specify a proxy host/port in a url ?

Something like ftp://user:pass@host@proxy:21:/my/path
(obviously doesn't work like this ;-) )

Thanks in advance!

- Filip

Will investigate, it's at a customer's facility (so I don't
actually have access to it to play much with it..)

Yes, I asked them to set it up this way to connect to my
update center and that seems to work for http at least.

Ok, will ask them to try it with the %40 and stuff..

Yes, thanks for your help.

Btw, did your fix for the FTP connect make it into the 1.3.0 release
of the ftp component?

Thanks a lot,

There is not a single ftp-proxy standard, so it depends on the ftp-proxy 
you use.
Could you please tell the type/name of your proxy?

If you use a socks proxy you could try the settings as described at 
http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/Net/FrequentlyAskedQuestions.

Other proxies need a special user-name e.g. anonymous@host.com. You 
could try something like
ftp://user%40targethost:password@proxy/

Hope this helps!
