[Twisted-Python] Need help using FTPClient
Hi. I am new to Twisted. I am using this code: http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/examples/ftpclient.py<http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/examples/ftpclient.py> Can this example be used to connect to an FTP through a SOCKS4/5 proxy? Can somebody provide an example of how it should be done? Thanks

Is there any reason you want to use Twisted to do your SOCKS proxying? Programs like 'socksify' typically do what you need in a general way that does not require any awareness from your application. (Twisted does have a SOCKS implementation, but it's rarely worth the trouble to plug it in.) -glyph
I want to make a script that does some simple ftp tasks (using socks) on a list of severs. I thought twisted is a good choice. 2012/12/28 Glyph <glyph@twistedmatrix.com>

Well, sure; if you want your program to do the SOCKSing, Twisted has an implementation for that, so you *can*; Glyph is just suggesting that it may be easier to use Twisted only for the FTP-y bits, and rely on other software (such as socksify) to handle the SOCKS parts :) So, to rephrase the question: is there a reason you're not using an external app to do the SOCKS parts?

I want to store those proxies in a database and check their status ocasionaly 2012/12/28 Laurens Van Houtven <_@lvh.cc>

Twisted does not have a SOCKS client, actually, only a server AFAIK. IIRC there's a 3rd party client library, but on github so therefore impossible to find.
OK, thank you for your help 2012/12/28 Itamar Turner-Trauring <itamar@futurefoundries.com>

There is a SOCKS5 client in a Twisted ticket, but it hasn't been merged into trunk yet (for lack of tests IIRC). I don't know whether it still works, but it did at one time. Here's the ticket: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/1330 -- Kevin Horn
