Re: [squid-users] FTP Confusion

http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-12.html#ss12.17

Any browser can connect to ftp-sites via squid but not many ordinary
ftp-clients support this feature.

You have to tweak IE a bit to work with squid. Mozilla works fine.
Wget works as well if you are careful.

If you need to support ftp on the client side try frox (sort of squid
addon) or use a 'real' ftp proxy beside or instead of squid.
