The following instruction (Section 19.2.2.3, Paragraph 2) is on FreeBSD
Handbook web page:
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/current-stable.html#STABLE.
	If you are installing a new system and want it to be as stable as
possible, you can simply grab the latest dated branch snapshot from
<ftp://releng4.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/>; and install it like any other
release.
I am trying to access the link as USER: anonymous, PW: <my e-mail address>.
It fails with a "530 User anonymous unknown." message.  Is the link no
longer active or is some other user id required?

Your response will be greatly appreciated.
