Handling FTP request.
Hi,
If i'm not mistaken, ATS don't support FTP protocol right ? And since most
FTP sites also have their HTPP alternative to FTP, how can i configure the
ATS to convert the request from FTP to HTTP. eg. ftp://ftp.site.com to
http://ftp.site.com
Thanks

No. FTP support was ripped out *before* the Open Source release.

Just FYI...a lot of FTP sites don't have that particular mapping setup.
The only reason I know is I've been doing a lot of testing lately, long
story.
One thing I do know...if you need to test HTTP bandwidth, CentOS Linux ISO
images are a good place to start.

I don't know of a way to do this with ATS out-of-the-box. If you look at
this project :
http://frox.sourceforge.net/
It implements fetching from an HTTP proxy (rather than an HTTP origin
server) by constructing an HTTP GET request with an ftp://... URL --
source code here :
http://www.hollo.org/cgi-bin/darcs?frox*./src/httpcache.c*20050701155136-91d48-6109433d0c1a6a3fa024cf5535fc8f559c233cfe.gz*./src/httpcache.c*20040228025012-91d48-4a1ed38bce14ec7dc95335e69d39394d5a670670.gz
You could presumably use ATS as the HTTP proxy in a similar setup.

out of those two, which one is possible ? From the way ask, seems like the
second one is doable. If can, how can i implement it ? Thanks for advise.

Do you want to "redirect" the FTP client to HTTP (likely not possible
since the FTP protocol has no notion of redirect nor URL) ?
Or do you want to proxy an inbound FTP client as an outbound HTTP
session ? (make an HTTP-only server work with both HTTP and FTP clients) ?

I guess its like what James's first question, ATS to accept FTP and switch
them to HTTP, or maybe rewrite back the request by replacing FTP with HTTP.
Is it possible ?

I'm not that clear on what you want. Do you want ATS to accept FTP connections and somehow switch them over to HTTP? Or do you want to transform HTML content to replace FTP URLs with the equivalent HTTP ones?
