a)
I've tried ExtFile-1.1.3.patch and the example external method on
http://dev.zope.org/Members/shh/Patches/
but it didn't work. FTP-Client shoes "426 Error creating files" alltough I'm a manager 
and have got all permissions.

Here my external method code:

    def PUT_factory(self, name, typ, body):
       #   Return DTMLDoc/Image/File, based on sniffing.
       print "Factory called"
       from Products.ExtFile.ExtFile import ExtFile
       from Products.ExtFile.ExtImage import ExtImage
       if typ[:6]=='image/':
           ob=ExtImage(name)
       else:
           ob=ExtFile(name)
       return ob

Any idea?

May be a squid-proxy time-out.
