I tried to check out this ftp site today, and when I changed to one of
the subdirectories, it would only give me one line of the "general
message" that comes up automatically everytime you change directories.  
Then when I hit enter, or tried to go to a new directory, the next line
would come up, but the directory wouldn't change...
then I would be disconnected...

any ideas, or is the owner of this site out there?
thanks

It's my server - and I have no clue what you are doing... what software
are you using to access my machine? And what is this "general message"
that comes up every time? I have some automatic messages in some
directories to give you info about the content.

Since Monday about 2500 users were successfully logged in, so I assume
there's something unique about how you access the machine. I notice a lot
of users attempt to "http://" to my ftp directories - no dice! You must
use the ftp:// URL...

if you come in via http, go from the default page to the IICC
onlne racing pages, from where you can link over to the ftp site by
clicking on the server name in the relevant paragraph mentioning the
site
