WININNET and FTP external access using proxy authentication

Subject:WININNET and FTP external access using proxy authentication

Our company firewall server requires authentication (user name and password)
for external FTP tranfers. WINIT's internet_connect funcrion does not have
parameters for firewall authentication, only parameters for authentication to
the remote FTP server.

Does anyone know of a work-around for this problem, besides executing a DOS
batch file to perform the FTP transfer?

Does .NET offer any alternatives?
