-
- Get the latest version of WS_FTP from ftp.usma.edu in /pub/msdos
-
- It does not have the problem.
-
- If you get it from ftp.cica.indiana.edu, the permissions on the file
- allow
- other people to overwrite it in the winsock directory and someone is
- doing that regularly. I wrote to the sysadmin about that but he says
- I'm wrong. (I know I'm right because I've done it myself.) Also be
- careful of some of the other files in that same directory. (Look at the
- permissions.)
