Please note that Maritza probably used a solaris 5.1 machine to display this;
you can tell because the response to the HELP command is incorrect.
The last line of the response should start with 214<space> to show that
this is the last line of the response.

There are probalby going to be zillions if machines that have this problem.
Has anybody found yet where SUN moved the FTP help response file?
