Integrating FTP-Mirrors

Hello!

I want integrate your local FTP Mirror into a Squid hierarchy. Whenever Squid
sees a "ftp:"-URL, it should fetch it from the local mirror if possible.

I think I could do it with a large redirector database. Another choice would
be to install a dedicated "FTP-Mirror-Cache" which interacts via ICP with the
other Squids.

Does such a software exist?
What are the pros and cons for each choice?

Thanks for your help.

Andreas
