Thanks, but funny enough it ONLY works like this:
 export ftp_proxy=http://peluche:9877/     

but NOT like this:
  ftp
  {
    Proxy "http://peluche:9877/";;

    Timeout "120";
  };

It always stop at:
 Need to get 675kB of archives. After unpacking 2138kB will be used.

and doesn't get any further.  Pretty strange, eh?
 Andy.
