Hi,

    I have written an FTP client in C# that communicates using sockets
(System.Net.Sockets.Socket that implements Berkeley sockets).

    This does not work from behind authenticated proxies.

    I have been given to understand that for the client to work from
authenticated proxies, i need to "Socksify" it.

    What is this "Socksification" of client?

Any help in this direction is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
regards

I guess that means adhering to the SOCKS protocol. Have a look at Indy if
you don't feel inclined coding that on your own ;-)
