[comp.sys.mac.misc] sumex-aim.stanford.edu

Anyone have information on the sumex-aim.stanford.edu ftp archive?  I
tried all day yesterday to get access and each time I was told that
all 25 connections were in use and to try again later.  This even
happened at 2:30am this morning!  Then today (3/6/91) I l finally get
access, and I go to the info-mac/init directory because I want to
download two files, grouch.hqx and spinit.hqx, and when I type the
ftp command

get grouch.hqx

I get

grouch.hqx: permission denied.

I checked the permissions on the file and it was set to

-rw-r--r--

so I should have had read access.  So I tried to get other files
besides the two that I really wanted, and each time I got the
permission denied message.

So my major question is: What's going on up there?

and my minor question: Does anyone have those two file who would be
                       willing to send them to me?

Thanks for reading this lengthy message, and thanks in advance to those
who reply...
