>Environment:

        ftp install via lp0

>Description:

	When the ftp connection created by sysinstall fails, not useful
        information is return on why it failed.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Install via ftp and do something bogus (I still don't know what I
        did wrong, I dragged oveftp, etc on floppy and I am able to connect and
        retrieve files.  I was trying to use a user other than ftp.
