Hello,

I'm trying to use curl with ftp through a socks5 proxy, but it doesn't work.
Something with the authntification fails, as you can see below:

curl ftp://ftp.suse.com/ -v -u ftp:ftp --socks5 localhost:9050
* About to connect() to proxy localhost port 9050
* Trying 127.0.0.1... connected

Any hints?
