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... Ken Anderson | "I'd much rather live in perfection, U.C. Irvine | than deal with reality." -- Kenbod
