master is not the correct place to upload packages. If you would read the motd when you login to master you will get the following: Linux master 2.2.16 #3 Thu Jun 8 22:08:03 CDT 2000 i686 unknown Copyright (C) 1993-2000 Software in the Public Interest, and others Uploads go to ftp-master.debian.org, not here. ** The mail system has changed, please visit http://db.debian.org/forward.html for more information ** Incoming has moved to ftp-master.debian.org; please upload there or use an upload queue.

Auric (ftp-master) does have a ftpd running, but the best method is to use scp instead. -- Dan Nguyen | It is with true love as it is with ghosts; [EMAIL PROTECTED] | everyone talks of it, but few have seen it.
