In our University we have installed a FTPSearch server and i was
thinking about using that information for redirection with Squid.

Now, we have a very simple PERL script installed which redirects all
FTP request and queries the FTPSearch server. What can i say?
Well, it works :).

From last december, we are using it in our production proxy/cache
system. We have 2.5M request per day so ... we are happy with
that script.
