Re: [newbie] IglooFTP
Hmmm...did you compile this version of Igloo, or did you install from an RPM. sounds like you've got a nasty bug inside you Igloo. If you compiled yourself there could be a bunch of things that could posibly be causing this. try uninstalling and reinstalling it and see if this cleans up the problem. you may also want to write the author of the program and see what he's got to say. -- Mark ** =/\= No Penguins were harmed | ** _||_ in the making of this | ** =\/= message...| Registered Linux user #182496 On Sun, 13 Aug 2000, Eric MC.D wrote: Well, using Igloo when lookup ftp.sunet.se there is no text on the dirs and when there is the chars are not lisible.

Re: [newbie] IglooFTP
Hi Eric I use IglooFTPO-PRO almost daily, I even bought program license, especially to visit that Swedish site with absolutely no problems at all. Suggest downloading version1.0.0 and trying again. gFTP has never worked well for me on my hardware.

Simplicity, accuracy, resumes, retries, que up a bunch, tell it how many at a time... just absolutely my favorite d/l manager. Copy a link to the clipboard and it pops up a window, click OK, and you're on you're way to a bulletproof d/l. I suspect it's just a simple FE for wget ;) Russian made I believe. Also highly recommended by the Mandrake developers (which is where i first heard of it) My other favorites for bulletproof grabbing of binaries, 'pan' for newsgroups (.mp3's, I like 60's and country), (IMNSHO) it's better than Forte Agent at this 'cause it's simpler. Use the i686 rpm from pan's site, it's better than the cooker rpm. I also find it a great newsreader for discussion groups. The quality of the Usenet feed your ISP provides is a big variable here. 'Xcollector' for .jpg newsgroups (naked ladies on the playboy NG's, YMMV ; Let it run a few nights and you'll havt'a go out and buy a CD-RW ;) Same ISP comment as above applies. Yours is most likely better than mine tho, since all Arkansas ISP's only think they've got it goin on. They need to get out more ;) Like down to Texas 'knapster', too bad it's fixin to be history :( I'm still tryin to figure out Gnutella, et al, but the mp3 NG's are still seem to be the best alternative. MOF, a lot of Nap files seem to be originally from the NG.mp3 bin groups AFAICT, eg, alt.binaries.sound A BIG benefit to using these apps rather than NS (I use Kmail also), is that if you remove Communicator, and just leave Common and Navigator, disable all java, Nutscrape hardly ever crashes as just a browser (knock on wood) - ~~ Tom Brinkman[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** =/\= No Penguins were harmed | ** _||_ in the making of this | ** =\/= message... | Registered Linux user #182496 On Sat, 12 Aug 2000, Pete Clapham wrote: Hi, all -- I know there's been some discussion of IglooFTP-PRO, where some purists have suggested it isn't the greatest thing since sliced windows, but I have to say that I just donwloaded it, and it works at least as well as the best graphic FTP I had run into previously (FTP-PM on OS/2).
