hi there, i just posted this in reply to a post in the activex forum:
http://support.dart.com/postings?topicid=6371


hi there,
we are having the same problem (only we are using PowerTCP FTP for .NET Release 3.0.2)
the proxy needs this usage
530-Usage: USER username@hostname proxyusername
530-    PASS password
530    ACCT proxypassword

has anything happened the last 3 years and so this is supported now?
how can we connect using this proxy?
thanks

Hi,
Based on the response, it looks like the following should work:

Ftp1.Username = "yourUsername yourProxyUsername"
Ftp1.Password = "yourPassword"
Ftp1.Account = "yourProxyPassword"

What happens when you try this?
Thanks,
-ken

hey there,
using this method the connection fails ("no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it") because it is not connecting through the proxy
so i have to set the Ftp1.Proxy.Server and .ServerPort so it really tries to use a proxy. but what is the proxy.type and so on...

but playing around the the "ListView" sample project (and modifying it so teh "account" property can be set) we finally arrived at the following trace
we used ftp1.username = "ftpuser@ftphost proxyuser" (where proxyuser is userdomain\username)
ftp1.password = "ftppassword"
ftp1.account = "proxypassword"
ftp1.proxy.type = "pipe"
ftp1.proxy.server = "proxyserver"
ftp1.proxy.serverport = 21

530-User Access denied.
530-
530-Usage: USER username@hostname proxyusername
530-    PASS password
530    ACCT proxypassword



which seems to be a little bit further down towards making a connection.
we'll now let the proxy-log check whether the access denied is from the proxy or whether there seems to be a problem forwarding the connection to the real ftp-server...

ok, if anybody has the same problem that he/she has to connect through a bluecoat proxy here is the solution to do the magic:

ftp.user += "@<ftpserver> " + <FTPProxyUser>
ftp.Account = <FTPProxyPasswd>
ftp.proxy.server = <FTPProxyServer>
ftp.proxy.serverport = <FTPProxyPort>
ftp.proxy.type = FtpProxyType.Pipe
ftp.passive = false
