Trying to upload to some ftp server over a proxy.

/usr/local/bin/curl -v -P - -p -T tom.txt -x {proxy:port} --trace
tom.out "ftp://{userid}:{password}@{ftp-server}/path/to/upload/dir/"

The ftp-server that I'm attempting to upload to does not support PASV,
which is why I'm attempting the PORT cmd (-P).
Just not sure why I'm getting the "Illegal PORT command". Does it have
something to do with my proxy server?

Here is the content of tom.out - I've modified it for readability...

== Info: About to connect() to {proxy:port}
