Have you tried asking the server administrators what is wrong? >> anon-password = (string) >> The password to use for anonymous ftp (default determined at run time). >> >> Which one had better set, unless one "wants all one's beans spilt", as >> you might note above, and better yet, with a warning on the man page >> as to the detail.) > > A> They already know your IP address, the information that WWWOFFLE uses > A> isn't any more secret than this is it? > > My modem calls some free ISP.

The username that WWWOFFLE sends for anonymous FTP is one that is made from the hostname of your computer. If you have a real hostname (like jidanni.org) associated to your computer then there are many ways that this can leak, not just with WWWOFFLE. You have a configuration file option already that will hide your e-mail address. If you are trying to go undercover then it is a good idea to read the instructions for the software that you are using and make sure that you configure it appropriately. -- Andrew. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew M.
