I am using squid as the PARENTPROXY (I would happily use something different if I could find one that proxied ftp).
I have now upgraded to HAVP 0.79
ftp_proxy & FTP_PROXY are both set to
http://localhost:8080/ in /etc/environment
I have added the line Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth 0; to /etc/apt/apt.conf
Unfortunately the problem still remains (i.e. ftp transfer aborts halfway through), however the error message is a little different
"Error reading from server. Remote end closed connection"
I have tried with several different debian ftp servers.
Any other suggestions?
By the way, I tried usine SmartFTP from a windows host through the proxy using CONNECT. It generates an error in HAVP - "Invalid request from browser"
Thanks for your help
