Hi Peter,

 HG> I wonder what I'm doing wrong because I can FTP-connect to Hobbes as
 HG> anonymous and my e-mail address as password but it always comes back
 HG> and tells me that the password is wrong.

PK>While it is "standard" practise to use your Email address as a
PK>password for anonymous FTP sessions, many FTP Servers will actually
PK>try and check that the Email address exists or is valid for the site

Well, that *may* be the cause.
I'll try the longer address @alcom.aland.fi instead of @aland.net that
I normally use.

PK>I hope this helps............pk.

I hope so too :-)

Thanks,

Holger
