Mac.Archive.Umich.Edu is still seriously crippled, ftp-wise, due to a 
very swamped network (so the sysadmin of the machine we currently use
for FTP severely limited the access) and we don't have any other
departments providing ftp service (I'm working on this as much as I
can... but some people seem pretty nervous about letting people ftp
to our archives through their machines, sigh)...
  
In about a month or two, this ftp access problem will disappear by
magic.  I'm keeping quiet until I'm sure it's set up and ready!

You can access the archives NO PROBLEMO through two other ways...

AFS access (type in "ls /afs/umich.edu/group/itd/archive/mac" on your
machine.. if you see the familiar mac.archive directories, make a link
in your home directory to our archives and NEVER ftp again!)...

or Gopher access (gopher to the host "gopher.uis.itd.umich.edu", for one).

To get files to us (and to Sumex and Comp.Binaries.Mac and some other
ftp sites at the same time), just e-mail the files to 
"macgifts@mac.archive.umich.edu".

And to get on our new files mailing list, drop me a note at 
"mac-recent-request@mac.archive.umich.edu".
