Hi there, As you might have noticed, alpha.gnu.org's FTPd recently stopped asking for a password for the "anonymous" user [1], and now allows that user to login directly.
This breaks some clients that are not prepared to cope with it. For example, apt-get does: < 220 GNU alpha FTP server ready. > USER anonymous < 230 Login successful. Have fun. > PASS [EMAIL PROTECTED] < 500 Unknown command. [EOT] Is alpha.gnu.org adhering to standards, or should we fix apt? -- Robert Millan
