SYMPTOMSAttempting to use the Fetch 3.0.3 FTP client to "PUT" or "GET" files through SOCKS Proxy fails with the following error message if configured to use Port-based connections: "Error number -1" CAUSEThis error occurs because of a malformed BIND request that the Fetch 3.0.3 client sends to the Proxy Server. When the BIND request is sent to the SOCKS server, the request should also include a destination port. However, with FETCH 3.0.3, a NULL value is sent to the SOCKS server, so the SOCKS server rejects the request and closes the connection. WORKAROUND
If Fetch 3.0.3 is configured to use a PASV mode connection to the ftp
server going through SOCKS Proxy, Fetch can successfully "GET" files
but still cannot "PUT" files successfully.
