FTP/proxy server/English

maybe you have to use another port for the proxy connection. Or maybe the proxy doesn't allow trafic to port 21, which is the standard port.
If your FTP program has a setting called "use passive transfer", you should have this checked when you are using a proxy.
But first, try looking into what port-connections are actually available to you. :-)

Most often you can't use FTP over a proxyserver - then you have to use webspace at a place like:
www.fortunecity.com, where you can upload via browser.

engberg: fordi DU ikke kan, er det ikke standard. 80% af alle de proxyer jeg har siddet bag i tidens løb (omkring en 120 stykker, vel nok) tillod ftp trafik ganske uhindret.

Sorry, men de jeg har snakket med omkring proxy, har alle givet udtryk for, at FTP normalt ikke var tilladt..

cldu> anyways, the problem was that it didn't work, see?
