From: David Towson (CSD) <towson@amsaa> Ernie - Thanks for your note saying that quotes are not needed around filenames in FTP command lines sent from UNIX unless there is a SPACE in the filename. Sure enough; I tried it without the quotes and it worked fine on Simtel20. You are also right about where I got into the habit of using quotes. I got it from FTPing from Mit-mc, which does have two-part filenames with the parts separated by a space. Dave
