This is a request for a new service.

I need ftp-request in reverse.

That is, someone who can't enable ftp login for uunet staff and can't
set up a direct uucp link to me has to get a moderately large pile
of data to me, with a modicum of security.

I'd like to achieve this by paying uunet for the privilege of an
ftp-only login account, chrooted to a spot with a moderate amount of
disk space. I could give my correspondant the login info, and then
uucp the results up here.

The uunet tech support person I spoke to said that my only option is
to use anonymous ftp, which has no security and can run into disk space
limits.

I'm happy to pay for this service.
