I'm just transferring some files between machines on the local network.

I'm amazed and the stuff not installed. I got the file transferred and couldn't decompress it because bzip2 was not installed.

I guess I've been out of the business too long.

Hey Michael,

I got everything installed and rebooted. Before I got into
configuration, I wanted to download a new driver for the nic. I tried to
ftp the file and get "-bash: ftp: command not found" I find it hard to
believe a basic install would not have an ftp client installed
automatically. We will be doing a lot of ftp of program files. Is there
a particular ftp client I should install?



I would recommend using either wget(1) or curl(1). Both support FTP (and
encrypted FTP) and are (IMHO) way easier to use than an old fashioned
ftp command-line client.

Hope this helps!
