I have a trouble...
My private network with several HP-UX servers is directly connected to a shared network through a proxy firewall placed as a border in the DMZ.
The shared network provide Internet access while the personal net doesn't.
My problem is to provide a ftp comunication between the servers inside private network to the servers in the shared network passing through the proxy: while for the HTTP there's no problem (just added the proxy in the browser), i don't know in which way may I allow the ftp communication through the proxy!
Does anybody know how?
Does it still exists a dynamic way to perform this operation or I have to apply a specific procedure for each involved server?
tks,
8hnds

SolutionNormally you just set a variable called http_proxy to a value for command line access.
There is in the firefox browser a menu item under preferences to set up proxies.

Re: enabling FTP service through proxy in DMZ to public n@t
ftp> proxy open x.y.w.z
this should help...
consider using wget tool to get your files as it uses the http protocol to retrieve files and as long as you know where you are getting your files from, on the remote server, you can script them and do the transfers unattended. wget is a freeware tool available for many OS platforms. just google the word if you need further information about it and download locations.

Re: enabling FTP service through proxy in DMZ to public n@t
searching in the web i found sometimes you have to add the proxy in /etc/hosts or, in other cases, someone suggests to modify configuration in /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess
it doesn't matter with my problem?other ideas?

Re: enabling FTP service through proxy in DMZ to public n@t
yes the proxy is able to accomodates ftp request: on another server belonging the same private network, using a mozilla browser on which the proxy for http ftp and so on has been specified it works fine.
The problem is to find a way to use ftp from the shell without needing to install a browser in all the server (corporate policy).
So i have an idea...if I install a browser and I specify the ftp proxy address in the "internet options" it's all working fine.
So the question becomes: does a configuration file, on which filling the proxy information and address via VI editor (as if I put proxy info in a browser) exists?

Re: enabling FTP service through proxy in DMZ to public n@t
Is there any possibility to install wget application on this machine to test if you can get to the ftp files using wget or is this also out of question ?

Re: enabling FTP service through proxy in DMZ to public n@t
just to know: i have no way to modifying something on the proxy side: dou you mean that there's no way to understand if the ftptraffic throuh the command line was disable from both the private and public side?

Re: enabling FTP service through proxy in DMZ to public n@t
If you have a personal server where you can access system level logs, that is located on the internet, which will accept ftp connections, one test you can do is to ftp to this server while watching its system logs to see if your command line ftp request is reaching it or not. Other than that, you are at the mercy of your network guys. You can ask them nicely to put a sniffer (maybe sniffers, plural) and see where the communication is breaking up.
