The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

FTP settings required for Bluecoat Proxy - FileZilla

Asked by ottobock in File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Apple Operating Systems, FTP Software

Tags: FileZilla, 3.x, FTP behind Bluecoat Proxy Security

Hello!
We have just installed a Bluecoat Security/Proxy system for our business.
Some of our end-users need to FTP through the Bluecoat for various reasons.  We have a solution for Windows users, but not our couple Mac OS users.

FileZilla v.2.2.32 works with Windows because it has a FTP proxy compatibility setting named:
- USER RemoteID@RemoteHost FireID
Unfortunately, v2.2.32 is unavailable (except via source code) for Mac OS.  Version 3.x is available for Mac, but the Proxy settings have changed...  I think it will be a matter of arranging the security/communication string correctly, but heck if I know in what order...  Heres whats in FileZilla v3:  
-----------
USER %s
PASS %w
USER %u@%h
PASS %p
ACCT %a
-----------
(%h=host, %u=username, %p=password, %s=proxy user, %w=proxy password, %a=account(lines containing this will be omitted if not using Account logontype))
-----------

Anyone have advice???
If not on the connection string, does anyone know of a FTP client for Mac that handles the non-transparent proxy security type USER RemoteID@RemoteHost FireID???

*Please note that I cannot change any of the Bluecoat settings*
*Please also note that I am a Windows-head and have no access to the Mac in question* :-)

If I can explain something better, please let me know!  And thank you for your time experts!!
