Hello again monks
Anyone know how to use FTP under the 'control' of Net::SOCKS? My FTPing is fine, but this SOCKS stuff looks a bit messy....

    The documentaion in Net::SOCKS appears to be pretty detailed to me. I never used it but I want tunneling through a fireway to be messy if it were my firewall. NEC is the sponsor of SOCKS. They have doc on what happens at About SOCKS.
