Does anyone know how to get Caching Proxy (formerly known as Web
Traffic Express) to proxy FTP ?
I have been successfully proxying http and https for some time, using
2 separate instances of CP, one listening on 80 and one on 443.
I've just tried to add a third instance to proxy FTP, listening on
Port 21 of course, and using a PROXY directive like this:
PROXY /* FTP://10.49.1.49/*
....but I always get 'request parsing failed' when I try to connect to
this via the proxy. I have tried it using a web browser (as the Admin
Guide specifies that you cannot use an FTP client) and also from the
command line using CURL. I am using the following URL for my request:
FTP://FTP.TONYTEST.COM/TONY.TXT
....where ftp.tonytest.com is resolved to 10.49.1.52 by an entry in the
local hosts file on the client PC - 10.49.1.52 being the primary IP
address of my Caching Proxy and 10.49.1.49 being the promary IP
address of my FTP server.

Any ideas?
