"On a FTP server of your choice, create an user-account called "install", and protect it with some password. Make sure the 'install' user can login via ftp (/etc/shells...)
If you want to use a different account, you can specify "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" for slurpdisk, uploaddisk etc.. " That is straight from the documentation. I'm not familiar with Filezilla too much. My server is running IIS FTP (its internal only, so no security bashing), and I did the whole "install" user bit. Have you tested with G4U to make sure that your "anonymous" user account isn't conflicting with standard ftp anonymous access? Or did you disable that? I'll send you my mids config once I have a second.

I also created a DNS entry that points mids.ourdomain to the IP address of the FTP server. When I boot off the MIDS CD it gives an error saying autoexec.sh can not be found. I discovered that for some reason the MIDS CD doesn't pull DHCP when it loads. The DHCP with G4U has always worked with no problems. So I setup the IP address etc manually and connected to the FTP Server. Then using the source code on the MIDS website as a reference I ran all the commands that are supposed to run automatically at boot. (copy then chmod the autoecec.sh) Then I ran the autoexec.sh manually. It starts running then gives another error saying it can't find the other files. My only idea at this point is that it is failing to access the anonymous ftp server. I am running Filezilla server, and just setup a user called anonymous and didn't require a password. Will that work? Thanks for the help.

I setup G4U at several locations with no problems, but I can't get MIDS to work. Does anyone have any experience with MIDS or any other menu driven front ends for G4U. I have several people working with the IT staff who are not comfortable running a command line app like G4U. Any help would be appreciated.
