You cannot connect to our ftp-server ?

Our server is also an offical site for X11R6 and linux. Many users try to connect to it. The server has a limitation of 40 users and you may get the message "...too many users..." if this limit is reached. Please, try it again later or try one the the site listed above.

If you only get the message "...access demied..." before connection breaks down, then your ftp-client does not support the full RFC (931 or 1314) and cannot display the message about user limitation. Maybe you want to use an other ftp-client. Please, try it again later or try one the the site listed above.


Good times for ftping

Remember that this site is in germany (europe). Good times for ftp are 4:00-6:00 in the morning and also 18:00-20:00 in the evening ( local time).

Privileged ftp-users

If you have installed an identification server (identd, RFC1413) on your system, you are handled as a privileged ftp-user. This user class is allowed to connect to our ftp-server even if the limit of anonymous users is reached. Allthough this class has also an user limitation, the competition is not as hard as for normal anonymous users. "identd" or "pidentd" can be found on various ftp-servers (for example: ee.utah.edu:/pidentd). Ask your system administrator.
