Use the server log for checking where the client expects the data (add -S to ftpd in /etc/inetd). E.g. I have to mount the FreeBSD-CD to /var/ftp/pub/4.1-RELEASE for the client to find it. Links to /cdrom won´t work. Could be that you´re having similar problems. -- Volker Stolz * stolz@i2.informatik.rwth-aachen.de * PGP + S/MIME To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
