Very interesting. I just tried Cygwin and it works for me, too. The
standard ftp clients on Solaris and HP-UX work, as well. But for some
reason I cannot get a directory listing with Linux ftp. (I tried from 3
sites using 3 different releases of Red Hat Linux/Fedora.)
XEmacs's menu didn't work either:
open ftp.xemacs.org
Connected to xemacs.org.
220 ProFTPD 1.2.9 Server (ProFTPD on ftp.tux.org) [gwyn.tux.org]
quote user "anonymous"
500 AUTH not understood
Anyway, I was able to download what I need from Cygwin. Thanks very
much for the help!
