I don't have any insight into your problem but I wanted to respond to this. I'm not singling your out, Curt. This just brings up a topic that's good to review every once in a while, for people who aren't sure how to pick the list to send their posting to. :-) If you look at , it says that the Cygwin list is for "discussion of just about all things related to the Cygwin community release", minus some exceptions I've omitted (but these are easy enough to find and read at the link I mentioned above.) cygwin-apps is for "discussing packaging issues regarding applications that are distributed with the Cygwin DLL." In your case Curt, since what you're posting here is a question about the workings of FTP within the inetutils package and not an issue with its packaging, you made the right choice. We do very strongly encourage everyone to use the information at the link above to determine which list to use for your posting. Obviously, you may still end up choosing the wrong list sometimes but your chances of getting it right will be greatly increased and you'll get some points for making the effort. And, of course, on the off-chance that you choose the wrong list for your posting, someone here will tell you. ;-) -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
