I recently got this behavior from another FTP site in Germany with classic computer content. Each click is a new FTP session, and about 5 clicks in, my IP got auto-banned for a large number of minutes. Same with using wget. First few files were fine, then banned. > I gave up from the web browser, and > waited until I saw your message and set up my normal FTP device on > Windows, and then tried. Right. I switched to an FTP client and had no problems (on that other site) getting whatever I needed. > I suspect that the site is having a bad day. I suspect there's a new feature in FTP servers (since the last time I set one up) that defaults to this behavior. Perhaps it's to impede simple bots from siphoning off content. -ethan _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
