[Q] socks-client rftp & rtelnet fails

[Sudhakar Chandrasekharan <thaths@netscape.com>]

$ cat /etc/socks.conf
sockd @=socks.domain.com  * 0.0.0.0

$ rftp ftp.debian.org
ftp: connect: Connection refused
ftp> bye


$ which rftp
/usr/bin/rftp

I have had this problem for over a year now.  I have tried all socks4.2
and socks 5 clients (both .deb packages and custom versions compiled
from source).  If not rftp, can somebody suggest some other ftp s/w that
tunnels through a socks firewall?

Thaths
