ftp directory mirror via squid



Quick question... when doing ftp via wget through a squid proxy server, how can one do a recursive directory mirror?

An example script that mirrors an ftp site:

	wget -m ftp://apt.sw.be/pub/dag/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/

Works great.  But try to do it via squid:

	export ftp_proxy=http://proxy.my.com:3128
	wget -m ftp://apt.sw.be/pub/dag/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/

And one gets a nice html file instead of the directory structure.

Is there an easy way to work around this?  Or is there a better, simple, command line tool for doing an ftp mirror via squid?

Thanks for the help.
