DESCRIPTION

OPTIONS

-I: Inetd mode. Standalone service only.
-d: Daemonise. Detach service from console and run in the background.
-t: Be silenT. Do not log start/stop/accept error records.
-u: Never look for username authentication.
-e: External address. IP address of interface proxy should initiate connections from. By default system will deside which address to use in accordance with routing table.
-i: Internal address. IP address proxy accepts connections to. By default connection to any interface is accepted. It´s usually unsafe.
-h: Default destination. It's used if targed address is not specified by user.
-p: Port. Port proxy listens for incoming connections. Default is 21.
-l: Log. By default logging is to stdout. If logfile is specified logging is to file. Under Unix, if ´@´ preceeds logfile, syslog is used for logging.
-S: Increase or decrease stack size. You may want to try something like -S8192 if you experience 3proxy crashes.

CLIENTS

You can use any FTP client, regardless of FTP proxy support. For client with FTP proxy support configure internal_ip and port in FTP proxy parameters. For clients without FTP proxy support use internal_ip and port as FTP server. Address of real FTP server must be configured as a part of FTP username. Format for username is username@server, where server is address of FTP server and username is user´s login on this FTP server. Login itself may contain ´@´ sign. Only cleartext authentication is currently supported.
