Hello, Im new to the computer scene and i'm having problems understanding some things. Here are a few questions that I have. Any help would be gr}ieatly appreciated. 1) How do you download files using ftp? 2) Don't you need an account on the host system to even be allowed to look through their files, even if they are freeware/shareware? 3) I assume that even if you are still able to download to your account on the VAX, then how do}i you transfer that file to your PC? Thanks for your time and patience. Send replies to ST1r1@jetson.uh.edu.
