Is there a syntax for passthrough ftp? That is, in our firewalled
network, we can use ftp via passthrough on the firewall machine
by specifying a port number and username of the syntax
"[email protected]" Sequence is something like this:

ftp -n firewall:portnumber

ftp-prompt-fro-firewall> user [email protected]

The outgoing connection is then set up and functions like a normal
ftp session. Can such a connection be set up using an URL, and
what it its syntax?

Thanks
