Once you've reached abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov., how do you logon as a "guest?" (I'm new to this and not sure of what I'm doing...) Thanks. David Poland 2flntopaz@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu

Do this... mail bitftp@pucc.princeton.edu ftp abcfd20.larc.nasa.gov user anonymous cd /incoming/amiga dir quit It's that easy... And I don't remember if "incoming" has one "m" or two...<grin> /****************************************************************** * All of the above copyright by the below. * * Bill Cavanaugh uunet!tronsbox!bleys * * * * "Armor may be heavy, but it's better than a stick in the eye!" * ******************************************************************/

(i.e. password = 2flntopaz) Technically correct, since the password is recorded and ignored, but I think polite behavior these days is to use a working path back to yourself as the password, i.e., for me, password=xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG, so the ftp site operators can get back to you by email if something you do is causing them problems. At least, that's how I interpreted the instructions I read. Kent, the man from xanth. <xanthian@Zorch.SF-Bay.ORG> <xanthian@well.sf.ca.us>
