Please excuse my ignorance for all questions I may ask. I have been reading this group for the past couple of days, and apparently there are places where IBM binaries are located, via FTP. I did not know this. I just got my modem at home, and have been attempting to download stuff from local BBS's. But most have such limited access times that I don't have time to download anything significant. If there are locations where large amounts of IBM binaries are located, could someone please tell me where. Also, what will I need to get them. I also have no idea how to use FTP, so if any kind sole would mail me a brief tutorial, I would be most appreciative. When I get the binaries, is there anything that needs to be done to them? Are they simply pkzip'ed, as on the BBS's? Thanks in advance to any who respond. If this group has a FAQ list, that might answer my questions. -Dylan
