Thanks Giampaolo, Benjamin for your responses. You are correct, if I
can connect to the ftp site from home and you can connect too then the
problem (as you state) lies at the firewall or some security issue.
Thanks for your detailed responses, they've been very helpful to me.
Kind Regards

The standard FTP protocol does not supporty any kind of proxy-ing
feature natively.
The only closest thing to the concept of a "proxy" we can find in the
FTP protocol is the site-to-site transfer feature:

Hi Tom, Giampaolo,
Thank you both for your swift replies. I have asked our IT dept to see
if it is the firewall that is blocking the FTP. They are working on
that side of things.
However I would have thought that the following or some version of it
would have worked:-
>>> import urllib
>>> proxi
The solution proposed on stackoverflow:
from ftplib import FTP
site = FTP('my_proxy')
site.set_debuglevel(1)
msg = site.login('anonymous at ftp.download.com', 'password')
site.cwd('/pub')
...can not work.
The "anonymous at ftp.download.com" part is pure fiction.
Nothing like that has ever been me
