FTP through Socks

[schwankieog]

Hi,
I need to write a ftp client program that connects through a socks 4 firewall. I have the basic ftp client coded, i just need to know how to connect through a socks 4 firewall. I have the port, and address to get through. Any help, or especially sample code, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,
-Josh

Last Bump, Anybody ... ???

Please don't bump.

It's not considered polite on Tek-Tips. Plus it's not like the C# forum gets hundreds of posts a day.

Not to get technical, but bumping isnt mentioned in that faq at all. This isnt my first post on this board, and i normally come here with the hardest issues i encounter since there seem to be knowledgeable people here, which is why i am so suprised no one has answered me.

Just to assure any one who may question my motives, this is not for an assignment. I have permission to go through this port, I just don't know how to make a program talk to a socks 4 proxy (something that obviously can be done, easy example is AIM) I guess i may have overestimated this board. Any way any help would be appreciated.
