Re: FTP-Problem: Thanks

Phil,

thanks alot. That’s new to me. I just found the comment on www.ntdev.org,
that one can download the archives via ftp.ntdev.org - this info is obviously
outdated. Is there no one who updates www.ntdev.org?
Maybe some subscribers (including me) would volunteer to update this site
(from time to time :slight_smile:

But a news reader will do.

Thanks again,

Oliver

Are you trying to download the archive for this mailing list? I don’t
think
it’s supported that way, at least from OSR. There is another archive at
ntdev.org, though I’m not too familiar with it. For all the messages from
the beginning of 2000, you can use a newsreader to download the entire
archive from lists.osr.com.

Again, there is an archive at ntdev.org, which may have what you want.
It’s
not updated inline, so it doesn’t have the latest messages, but it does
have
the archive pre-2000 in it.

Hmm. It used to work. In fact, I’ve got a few of the archive files, though
I’ve never had time to go through them. Not sure which ones I have, so
don’t ask me to mail them to you. I don’t even remember where I dropped
them at the moment, and I’m not going to go look for them. :slight_smile:

You might email the webmaster at ntdev and ask him if he disabled FTP
intentionally…
