Bruce,

Don't panic.  Try here instead:

http://home.wanadoo.nl/manual.man/manuals.html

And *don't* try to go to the main ftp directory before going to the
desired manual, or you will get the Access Denied error.  Just scroll
down to the ftp link and download the desired .pdf file.  I thought it
was broken, too, when I couldn't get to 

ftp://ftp.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Misc/Service/servicemanuals/

but just doing a clink-and-hold on the link to get the option to
download the file located at:

ftp://ftp.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Misc/Service/servicemanuals/powerbook_190.5300.pdf

worked just fine!  In fact, I just tried it again (4/18/2002 @ 12:11 AM
EDT) to make sure it still works.  (You might have to set a preference
in your browser to send a valid e-mail address for ftp access, but I
can't find that setting right now in IE 4.5  on my PB 5300cs, and I
haven't checked iCab 2.7.1.)
