The trick to build NcFTP properly is to first download the latest NCurses library (1.9.4) from ftp://ftp.netcom.com/pub/zm/zmbenhal/ncurses/ and compile it (as a shared library, preferably). Otherwise you'll have a hard time getting the visual screen to work (or even compile) properly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jake Hamby | E-Mail: jehamby@lightside.com Student, Cal Poly University, Pomona | System Administrator, JPL -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
