[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] pc hangs occasionally when using ncsa package

A faculty member here using v2.2 of the ncsa package has been experiencing
occasional hangs when using ftp. Basically, the system just freezes in the
middle of the ftp session and resetting it is the only thing that will
get the system back. Has anyone else experienced this and is there a fix
for this problem?

On a different topic, is rdump available from anywhere using the ncsa 
package. We would like to allow faculty a way of backing up their pc.
I've tried the rdump from FTP and that seems to work well, but would 
like to be able to rdump without purchasin the ftp package.

thanks in advance
