I'm sorry to post such a silly question, but I really want to know
HOW TO USE FTP FROM A VMS MACHINE.
I do "ftp (some number)" and then "login" at the "FTP> " prompt. Then
the system asks for user_name and user_acct (or something similar), and
no matter what combinations of "ftp" and "anonymous" or whatever I type
the result is always "Access denied" or a similar message. What am I
doing wrong??
