ipchains / squid / ftp
Hi all,
Our firewall here is using debian 3.0 upgraded from potato, with kernel 2.2.19 and ipchains 1.3.10-15, and is configured to use masquerade.
Behind this firewall, there is another debian 3.0 machine with kernel 2.2.19 running squid recently upgraded to version 2.4.6-2. Every machine in our network has to be configured to use this proxy for accessing the internet.
Our problem, that lasts for a long time, since potato days, is that we can't access most external ftp sites through squid even using passive mode. When some machine has to access this kind of ftp server, the only way is to open the firewall for that machine access the site without passing through the squid proxy. One example of such ftp site is ftp://ftp.horde.org/pub/imp/
and ftp://ftp.microsoft.com :)
Any help?
Thanks in advance.
