hmm i thought i already posted this message but i didn't see it here. 
anyway while trying to ftp something i ran accross this problem, and yes i 
looked in unix manuals:
  i do a listing, and get
drwxrwxrwx    512    file.ps.Z
   and i know it's a directory, but i can't change to it. the computer 
says that there's no such file or directory as file.ps.Z. is there some 
character that might be part of the name that someone could have put 
there, that doesn't show up on a terminal screen?
  i had the same problem at another place, except that whenever i did a 
listing, the string '^P++^P0' came up on the next ftp prompt...?
