Hi,
I have a problem. I am using a python program that needs to download stuff via ftp. It does that using the ftplib package.
Our network has a restriction regarding ftp, so I need to use a proxy. The ftplib package, however, does not support proxies.
Is it somehow possible to implement a system-wide proxy, similar to the proxy in .wgetrc?
Thx.

I don't have first hand experience but I read that transparent socks5 proxy utilities are available. Do a quick web search and see what's out there. Otherwise you could also use a VPN to alleviate the restriction on your network.
