Thanks for the debug suggestion.  I used it and got this output:

    $ lftp
    lftp :~> debug 9
    lftp :~> open george

    etc....

I would love to use the latest lftp version, but I can't find a binary that would
run on my AMD machine running Mandrake 8.1.  If you can point me to a location
where I can get, I'll get it!  (I need to reinstall linux on my machine, this
time with developer stuff, before I can compile the source).

So...  I wonder what causes No route to host????

Thanks,
