FTP Client Proxy Package
-
I suspected that might be the case. Proxying IPv6 seems like a bad idea anyow. I may rip that option out next rev.
In environments, where users are trying to build a new IPv6 only network, that option may be very well received (for proxying IPv6 clients to IPv4 only servers). If that is possible, it would be nice to be included. Of course not needing FTP at all would be quite better… ;)

It wasn't a 6-to-4 style proxy or anything that interesting, it was for v6 to v6 only, which is pretty useless except maybe in the presence of strict outbound firewall rules that the proxy could help with.

Like any other package. System - Packages.

There is no package "ftpproxy".
"freeradius2" is the last, then "gwled" is the next one.
Will it be visible after I have done the update? -
The package is for 2.2.x only…

Note for future posters to this thread:
This thread is for general feedback about the package (commentary, GUI notes, etc) – Problem reports should go into separate threads so they can receive proper/full attention without taking over this thread. Dropping a note here saying it didn't work for you is OK so long as it contains a link to a separate problem thread for further discussion.Thanks!

Hi! Sorry for my bad English.
I use FTP server on port 1221. In PFsense 2.1 I configure ftphelper with option debug.pfftpports. But in PFsense 2.2 I can't confirure packet "FTP client proxy" for work with port differing from 21. Help, please! -
The ftp-proxy(8) daemon seems to only work properly with a server on port 21, so there does not appear be a way to accommodate that scenario at this time.

Whatever you do, don't use a vpn. That would be too easy…
-
Thank you very much for this package !! ;D
that should do the trick for some of my customers who are stuck with application that use "archaic" FTP Active client to update :)
Will try it in next maintenance 8)

Hi,

Make an alias and put the alias name there.

Just wanted to thank you wholeheartedly for this package. I know FTP is 'discouraged' but sadly we can't always force these decisions on users when legacy systems are in place and working. This package has saved us a lot of headache.
bravo sir

Dear Jimp,
thank you VERY MUCH for this great package!
Is it possible to modify package and GUI to realize an explicit proxy environment?
Best wishes

Have an issue with 2 in-series PFSense boxes… the 2nd one is on a LAN (Opt1 on PFSense #1 / all traffic in-and-out for that LAN on WAN Virtual IP and NAT'd through to 2nd pfSense) and needs to get out to WAN for Active FTP Session. If I set the 2nd pfSense FTP Client Proxy to WAN external address it won't connect at all, but if I set it to default (WAN - which is actually LAN going to Opt1 in first pfSense), it connects but will not open data port.
Hope this make sense - any ideas?

@klingone:

Not that I'm aware of. If you need an explicit proxy, I believe that squid can handle that.
