It may have gotten lost when the list went down last week, but I
posted about the dselect pseudo-ftp not working either. So since I have no
ftp binary, or way to get the netstd package, I am still out of luck.
When I run dselect and attempt to connect this is what I get...

Someone from this list forwarded me this, and it is the EXACT same
thing that happens to me. I tried it with that host, other hosts, etc.. no
good. It bombs out just like that :(
So, until I can find some 1.1 disks, or this gets fixed my server is
still down...
