Well, maybe I was very unclear. I certainly didn't mean to inquire
about the name of the executable (of course, it's ftp ;^). But, there
are many ftp clients out there, and I liked the particular one that
comes stock with FreeBSD.

What I was asking for is some identifier of the ftp client that
FreeBSD has for default one.

The file ftp.c has some id line that perhaps implies that the client
comes from NetBSD...
/*      $NetBSD: ftp.c,v 1.29.2.1 1997/11/18 01:01:04 mellon Exp $      */

So I was wondering if there were a tarball somewhere of this client as
a stand-alone application.
