if you have parent proxy you should use the never_direct acl.

acl ftp_ports port 21
acl ftp_ports port (some other ftp ports you are usinf)

cache_peer corp_proxy_ip parent 8085 0 no-query no-digest proxy-only
cache_peer_access corp_proxy_ip allow ftp_ports
#or add another acls to use the corporate proxy
cache_peer_access corp_proxy_ip deny all

never_direct allow ftp_ports
#or add another acls to use the corporate proxy
never_direct deny all
