Squid is HTTP proxy and not FTP proxy; you need to check your firewall rules
for this. Check what modules are loaded in your iptables.Try loading
ip_nat_ftp module in iptables-config.

Thank you.

Hey there,

I am using a client called: FlashFXP and in the proxy settings I choose:
"HTTP PROXY (Connection Tunnel)"

So yes client supports HTTP Proxy, it's only the squid that is blocking it
as it shows on these logs.
It is actually blocking all ports besides 80 and 8080 in order to block all
P2P / Torrents programs from accessing the net.

I only need to re-enable FTP using any port! But still blocking other
programs from accessing these ports.

Thanks.
