<para>This option instructs FreeBSD to use the HTTP |
| 544 |
protocol (like a web browser) to connect to a proxy |
| 545 |
for all FTP operations. The proxy will translate |
| 546 |
the requests and send them to the FTP server. |
| 547 |
This allows the user to pass through firewalls |
| 548 |
that do not allow FTP at all, but offer an HTTP |
| 549 |
proxy. |
| 550 |
In this case, you have to specify the proxy in |
| 551 |
addition to the FTP server.</para> |
