Hi netters, Can anyone tell me why I can no longer ftp to ab20? I get a message to the effect that my login was rejected. Tanks, barry@ucscloc.ucsc.edu

It works ok for me. Be sure you type user name "anonymous" (it's important that it's spelled right), and your e-mail address as the password, which in your case would be "barry@ucscloc.ucsc.edu" If your terminal program supports macros, you might want to use two of them for the above two strings. This works well for me, since I almost always do ftp from my Amiga. -- Dave Schaumann | We're so sorry, Uncle Albert.

You aren't using the user name 'anonymous', and your real id as the password (in your case, 'barry@ucscloc.ucsc.edu') 2. They banned you (I dont know if they do this at ab20, but it may be a possibility.) Did you upload a file which contravenes the MOTD rules? 3. The FTP server hates you :-) -- ____________________________________________________________________________ | | | | Luke Mewburn (Zak) | This side for lease... | | s902113@minyos.xx.rmit.oz.au | (No disclaimer, can't afford it:-) |
