cannot use ftp utility throught proxy

2013-05-27 Thread vadims

Hello!
Can someone help me, please?

Have no luck seting up ftp utility for using proxy.
Already have set environment variables:
FTP_PROXY=http://proxyserver:8080
HTTP_PROXY=http://proxyserver:8080

When try to connect:
root# root@zerver:/root # ftp -a ftp2.FreeBSD.org
root# ftp: Can't connect to `128.205.32.24:21': Operation timed out
root# ftp: Can't connect to `ftp2.FreeBSD.org:ftp'

Used tcpdump to check where it connects:
root# tcpdump -n -ttt -i em0 port ftp

 I can see, that ftp is trying to connect directly to 128.205.32.24.21.

Tried to use this env variable, but without acceptable results:
FETCH_CMD=/usr/bin/fetch -ARrvp -T 10

uname -a
9.1-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE-p3 #0: Mon Apr 29 18:27:25 UTC 2013 
r...@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64


Excuses my language, not native English.

Have a lucky day!

I think I can see the problem. Please check man ftp for the
correct name of the environment variables. Unlike typical for
many other programs, those for ftp are written in lower case:

 ftp_proxy  URL of FTP proxy to use when making FTP URL requests (if
not defined, use the standard FTP protocol).

See http_proxy for further notes about proxy use.

 http_proxy URL of HTTP proxy to use when making HTTP URL requests.
If proxy authentication is required and there is a user-
name and password in this URL, they will automatically be
used in the first attempt to authenticate to the proxy.

If ``unsafe'' URL characters are required in the username
or password (for example `@' or `/'), encode them with RFC
1738 `%XX' encoding.

Note that the use of a username and password in ftp_proxy
and http_proxy may be incompatible with other programs
that use it (such as lynx(1)).

NOTE: this is not used for interactive sessions, only for
command-line fetches.

You can also interactively set those (again, see man ftp for
more details).

According to the ftp manpage, the variables for proxying are:

 ftp_proxy  URL of FTP proxy to use when making FTP URL requests (if
not defined, use the standard FTP protocol).

See http_proxy for further notes about proxy use.

 http_proxy URL of HTTP proxy to use when making HTTP URL requests.
If proxy authentication is required and there is a user-
name and password in this URL, they will automatically be
used in the first attempt to authenticate to the proxy.

If ``unsafe'' URL characters are required in the username
or password (for example `@' or `/'), encode them with
RFC3986 `%XX' encoding.

Note that the use of a username and password in ftp_proxy
and http_proxy may be incompatible with other programs
that use it (such as lynx(1)).

NOTE: this is not used for interactive sessions, only for
command-line fetches.

Notice the capitalization, ftp_proxy as opposed to FTP_PROXY. Not sure why
environment variables are not all caps, seems inconsistent.
