Anyone know of a good utility to redirect requests sent out on one port to another port on the proxy? I want to use mapped links to allow UPS Courier software (called UPS Connect) to get thru the proxy. All I get are connection failures and they don't allow me to change the ports. Their software uses ports 21 & 1024.
Thanx,
TFehr

Mapped Links in LS should work for you. First thing I see is the app uses port 21. Read the LS KB article about disabling its FTP service, then try again using mapped links.
http://www.analogx.com has a port mapping app.

I have other users that use the ftp port on the same server so I can't use it as a mapped link besause it would cut them off. Even port 1024 is a little tricky becuase there is a distinct possibility that windows may be using it for sharing or something.
Thanx anyway,

You've got a few options;
you could use something like sockscap to route the app through the socks proxy..
or, since you need your FTP server, you could simply move your FTP to another port besides 21. Your clients will still be able to use it with no problems, they would simply specify the port, ex. using the default, ftp://ftp.myserver.com or using any other port for example 22, ftp://ftp.myserver.com:22
it seems odd that a shipping app would use port 21.. are you sure about that? remember your app needs to use fixed ports in both directions for mapping to work.. >1024 is usually dynamically assigned, you might have to use sockscap
