Proxy Problem with CONNECT

localhost · 02-12-2004, 01:24 PM

Hi guys.

I am behind my inst. HTTP proxy-firewall. The problem I am facing is that the proxy does not support the CONNECT command and for some reasons the admins have decided that it will remain this way.

I can get some other proggys like CuteFTP to work cuz (I think) they use the GET method for transfer. I was wondering if its possible to use GET instead of CONNECT in FlashFXP also cuz its my fav ftp client and much better than all others IMHO.

I thought about using a socks server but then most of the ones I know (like s2h and HTTP-Tunnel) also use connect so it leaves me back at the same spot. If any of you guys can give me some pointers about how to get it to work then I will really appreciate it.

Relevent details:

FlashFXP 2.1 Build 924
OS: WinXP Pro
Behind a HTTP proxy-firewall (Squid)
Using NAV 2004 Pro
On a 100 MBps Uni LAN

I hope I did not leave anything out

Thanks
