How do i use the arpanet to ftp files in .com, .arc, or .exe form
that i find stored on arpanet machines. the binary ftps
dont seem to work. I have access to a unix-gould and a vms vax to
do this from with kermit on both to get the files home.
I can uudecode and arc uucp files ok but whats the secret to
using ftp for network archives?

thanks
