Look in the directory pcsig. DON'T dir or ls this directory; it has well over a thousand entries. Just "get disk0259.arc", or "mget *0259*". One problem I've had here that I've been meaning to write them about...there's a catalog file which contains a list of all the files on all the disks, but it's over two megabytes, and something...local or remote, I don't know...kicks me off after one megabyte is transferred. They ought to have that catalog list in a compressed format, anyway, just because it's faster to transfer, but also so your's truly can bring the file to the local machine.... Well, maybe they'll see this and take some action. Best o' luck, d "So much karst; so little time...." Duke McMullan n5gax nss13429r phon505-255-4642 ee5391aa@hydra.unm.edu
