This a bug report regarding FTPing bison from prep.ai.mit.edu. Using FTP in binary mode from our VMS Vax I was able to get the Emacs and Make compressed tar files. When I tried to get bison.tar.Z it could not find the file. A "dir" command on FTP showed the file being there. Three times I could not "get" the file. I am running VMS FTP 3.0. The two sucessful transfers and the three failed attempts occured in one secession. It states the "File not acessable". I tried to reconnect twice more and will able to get on could not get the file. Do not use reply to mail to me, use the following mail address. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- J.
