Hi, David, Yes, I did grant permission, and asked ZA to remember it. And I tried the DOS ftp, it works fine. A "type" showed that I was picking up the cygwin ftp. I'll upgrade ZA to see. Just haven't had time....been a steep learning curve trying to learn stuff to install iverilog,....cygin, mingw, gtkwave, iverilog, bash, makefiles, different make installations, VNC &tightVNC in case it all doesn't come together and I have to access the big machines for verilogXL...I have to take a haitus from it all to do stuff that I'm here for, because theflames are raging in that department.
Thanks.
