hi mike,
i just tried it a few moments ago and it stalled again at 16384 bytes
and (fwiw) this was on a clean cdrom installed version of i386 2.2.6,
using the packaged netscape 4.04. each time, before the attempt, i
cleared memory and disk cache and right clicked the file for a save.
previous to this, i tried it on a clean ftp install of 2.2.7, using
netscape 4.05 and 4.06. (chuckle) i lost 2.2.7 the other night during
a 3.0-beta install (my error).
the reason i brought it up was due to the fact i had no problems in
getting the stuff off doug's freefall site at www.freebsd.org/~dfr/
using the same method.
i know you folks are busy and jordan did let me know there was some
work being done to establish a ftp alpha repository.
yes, please send me a copy.
best2u and thank you, curtis
