Package: frox (0.7.18-4)

Transparent caching ftp proxy

Frox is an FTP proxy with the following features. 

 - Written with security in mind, default setup runs as a non-root user in
   a chroot jail.
 - It supports caching of FTP downloads, either through a local cache, or
   by redirecting connections through another proxy such as squid.
 - Downloads may be transparently scanned for viruses (through an external
   scanner).
 - Controllable via scripts, there is an interface for writing scripts to
   add features or modify frox's behavior, examples included.

Transparent proxy support is not automatically setup by this package.
