Howdy all......:-) Have tried unsuccessfully to obtain ncftp via ftp dselect at the main debian and some mirror sites.
Here's a session log output: Connecting to ftp.debian.org Login as anonymous Setting transfer mode to binary Cd to /debian/non-free/binary Checking ncftp/binary-i386 Warning: Couldn't find a Packages file in ncftp/binary-i386 This may not be a problem if the directory is a symbolic link Closing ftp connection Everything works fine up to the end of "Cd to /debian/non-free/binary" which is the directory where the ncftp package resides (which I checked for with an ordinary commandline ftp session). After the directory change though, dselect tries searching the directory "/ncftp/binary-i386"! It seems to be using the requested package name as part of a directory with the "binary-i386"tagged onto it. <shrug> Bug or is this first time ftp dselect newbie to linux messing up somewheres along the line? Thanks......:-) PS.......what are they refering to in the log file output by the statement: "This may not be a problem if the directory is a symbolic link"....?? -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
