Hi,

I have been trying to set up a mirror site for a while and been having 
problems, here's the story..

We need a program that will mirror (by ftp) from behind our firewall
to a host on the other side of the firewall (somwhere on the net) by 
'putting' the files, rather than the destination machine 'getting' the 
files from behind the firewall. (Our firewall allows absolutly no 
incomming tcp/ip requests, only outgoing)

Also, only updated files should be put. The software needs to work via an 
ftp proxy server that is on our firewall machine and will be run on a Netra 
 (stripped down solaris 2.5).

E.g..

'Dir/*/*/*etc.' Local machine (inside firewall - solaris2.5)
     (via) --ftp proxy--> firewall machine
               --ftp--> net machine '/Dir/*/*/*etc.' (destination - host)


Something with C src code would be the easiest solution..

Any ideas?

advice would be much welcomed,
thanks in advance,

ps Please could you mail me directly, as I'm not sure if I'm actually 
subscribed to this list or not :-)

Thanks...
