Your problem is that you gave it your own name, which isn't a valid
account.

Try "anonymous" for a login name, and "guest" for a password.  These
worked for me.

Thanks, and before anyone asks what Clarkson FTP is, here's the blurb:

The semi-official c.b.i.p archives are on grape.ecs.clarkson.edu which
is a Zenith Z-248 running a modified version of KA9Q's TCP/IP NET that
allows you to shell out to DOS while still processing packets.  After
shelling to DOS, we run an Opus BBS.  The particulars:

FTP: grape.ecs.clarkson.edu [128.153.13.196], user anonymous, password guest.
     Look in 00readme for timely information.
     Look in /d/general/cuhug.lst for a listing of files w/ descriptions.
     Look in /[cdef]/allfiles for listings of all files.
     Look in /c/bin1/*.* for c.b.i.p postings.
     Look in /d/graphics/pa.arc for Painter's Apprentice
     Look in /e/freemacs/*.* for Freemacs
     Look in /f/gif/*.gif for .GIF images.
     Look in /f/games/*.* for Simtel20's games.
Opus: 260/360 in the Nodelist.  (315)268-6667, 8N1, 1200/2400 Baud, 24 hours.
     Look in file area 12 for Painter's Apprentice
     Look in file area 23 for Simtel20's games.
     Look in file area 25 for Freemacs
     Look in file area 26 for c.b.i.p postings.
     Look in file area 27 for .GIF images.

Submitting files to grape by FTP:

You can just put the file where you believe it belongs.  Note that you
cannot overwrite files, so if you want to update something, you need
to change the name.  Send mail to root if you need to delete or
overwrite a file.

To help us keep the 'files.bbs' up to date, we need a .DSC file.  This
file should have its first line be a one-line description less than 40
characters in length.  The rest of the file (no more than ten lines)
can be a more verbose description.  Either put the file in the arc, or
else in the same subdir as the arc.

Hello,

First I want to thank all those who'd given me help so far,
my beginner's questions perhaps are annoying to those old timers,
but nevertheless many responded courteously,
I really appreciate for all the help I've got so far,

I am having trouble in FTPing over fract386.arc from Clarkson,
FTP tells me the transfer was successful but
in fact it had written to a file with zero byte size,
why is that????
does anyone know,
what do I have to do?

Thanks for a Million!!!

Leung
