Howdy,

I find myself in the unenviable position of having to support a Raptor 
firewall.  I am having nothing but problems with the crazy thing and all that I
can say is that I am glad I wasn't involved in the purchase decision.

Has anyone gotten Chameleon Netmanage 4.5's FTP to work through the thing with
gateway authentication?  After my previous experiences with the Raptor's tech
support and after reading this:

"When user authentication is being enforced at the Eagle it requires the use ofi
the account command to exchange the users gateway password. Many windowed ftp 
clients don't provide access to this command and therefore fail when trying to 
pass through the Eagle." (from the FAQ on Raptor's web site)

I don't think that I am going to get much help from Raptor.

Normally, I'd recommend my client switch to a non-windowed FTP on their PC's,
but they rolled out I don't know how many copies of Chameleon before they went
firewall shopping...

Jason
