The one that came with our IRIX 3.1C appears to be rather old and broken: version 4.147 Nov 5 1988 12:18 Is IRIX 3.2 available now? Does it have a newer ftp/ftpd? Or if they are already in 3.1G, would it be possible to upgrade just those two? I have the current ftpd from uunet, but I'm getting tired of fixing things when I'm not really familiar with the program. Right now, in my almost-vanilla port, I get core dumps from a null password and from 'dir', and 'mget *' doesn't work -- you need to use 'mget ./*'. If anyone has ported the uunet versions to the Iris and has them working consistantly, please let me know. \tom haapanen "now, you didn't really expect tom@mims-iris.waterloo.edu my views to have anything to do watmims research group with my employer's, did you?" university of waterloo
