Hi,
is there any way to get the ftp-proxy(8) program to
use a secondary proxy? In other words, I'd like to:
ftp_client -> ftp-proxy -> another_ftp_proxy -> out
I have two applications for this:
1) I have a network with it's own firewalls that is
inside a much larger network with it's own
firewalls. While I can setup a transparent
proxy for the lan firewalls, the systems inside
the lan would still have to be configured to
specify the external proxy (which is not
transparent).
2) For stand-alone machines, I'd like to exploit
the fact that pf can filter based on the
uid and thus I could filter based on the
ftp-proxy program holding the open ftp port.
Thanks for the replies,
Rob
