Well, 1) seems to matter little here or it would have been done right in the first place. As for 2), for the server in question (TCPware V5.6-2), it seems adequate to do a "CWD []" after a CWD to a UNIX-like path. (Seeing the VMS-like directory specification seems to reset it to VMS mode, and everything's fine after that.) > [...] CWDing into > deep dir hierarchies get really slow with that loooong series of CWD > sending! ;-) I'll admit that it'd be tedious for the program(s), but do you really think it'd be slow? (I suppose that you could get a lot more .welcome files back if there's one in each directory along the way.) Anyway, the latest replacement ftp.c near "http://antinode.org/dec/sw/wget.html"; seems to satisfy my needs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Steven M.
