Wrong path statement for sure. The "//" is wrong, the %2e is wrong, the
"\" is wrong. The arcive is wrong.
I'm not too sure about the host either.
This is a 3.4Mb file, are you sure you want to receive 160+ uuencoded
mail messages? If you omit the Split command, gopher will send in 27K
pieces.
I used this send request to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Split=300K
Name=icq99a_nomfc.exe(3.4Mb)
Type=9
Port=70
Path=ftp:ftp.cso.uiuc.edu@/pub/systems/pc/simtelnet/cnet/win95/internet/
icq99a_nomfc.exe
Host=gopher.eunet.cz
Set your word wrap off.
I received back 17 parts in minutes...
