Is this be rude to newbies day or what? Kate, you do have a very good
point but, if newbies geta sharp answer like that they might just give up on
the whole lark. Remember that the average Windoze user is shielded from the
command line version of FTP in a lot of cases. I think that, from that
guys posts earlier, that he is very much a 'I just installed Linux for the
first time' newbie so hows about cutting people like that some slack? Sure
if they persist with daft questions after 3 months then tell 'em where to
go.

 Please, this is a *LINUX* user group, not an FTP or NT user group. Try
and do some work for yourself.
