I take back what I said in a previous message: that NCSA Telnet's built in ftp server was not functioning properly in the case of Release 5 packet driver, 16-bit ethernet board, and NCSA telnet 2.2D. Actually all seems to work perfectly. What happened was that Telnet said FTP was enabled, even though it was not. The config.tel file says "ftp=no" and FTP is disabled, but the Parameter Menu screen says "File transfer is -- Enabled". A bug in 2.2D, it seems to me. If I have the config.tel say "ftp=yes", or toggle file transfer off/on at the parameter menu inside NCSA Telnet, then all is well.
