HTTP Proxy

[Newby]

I need some software that'll preferably run on FreeBSD that functions as an HTTP proxy. Authentication optional though I'd seriously want it since I'm gonna run it on amee (a FBSD server).

See, I need to download some programs via ports, and I can't do FTP. However, FreeBSD allows me to use FTP over HTTP proxies, so if I can do this I'm good.

Suggestions?

Uh, can't you use a public proxy?

I've found this list to be rather reliable:

Squid.  You need to set up your firewall to allow active FTP.

It's his dad's network, and his dad is weird, so that's not an option. =/

My dad "doesn't like FTP" and "doesn't need it" so he blocks FTP altogether. :/

That's why I need an HTTP proxy. :)

I'll check out Squid. Thanks.
