Yes, anonymous login is disabled.... because the sole reason for FTP is for the various authors/maintainers of classic/retro computing sites which the classiccmp server hosts. Each website owner/author uses FTP to maintain their website on the classiccmp server. That being said.... a bunch of ideas/projects have been languishing on the backburner, and some may involve FTP. Some examples.... 1) (This one is already a given) If anyone wants an FTP spot for classic/retro computing files, it's available gratis. Just email me off-list. 2) I was thinking of creating a web interface such that people could upload pictures and/or a "tinyurl" functionality, such that when they make posts to the list where they want to include a picture or long link it gets uploaded to the classiccmp server and the link is available to posters. Long story short, since the mailing list doesn't allow attachments - this would allow the same functionality. Added bonus, the material doesn't go away over time and can be maintained. 3) Specific "public" ftp repositories for all listmember use. Of course, we'd have to have people "sign up" for a classiccmp.org account to keep it Just random thoughts - other thoughts/ideas that anyone may have - just email me offlist.

Is "anonymous" login enabled on your FTP server? Or do we require a login before we can access the site? Thank you, Jerry On 11/27/15 01:55 PM, Jay West wrote:

We do make a LOT of stuff available that is put up via ftp (privately, by myself or a few others), but it's always been available via http not ftp. It is also possible that many of the people who have their website hosted on the classiccmp server are making stuff available via ftp, and I wouldn't necessarily be aware of it. That all being said - if there's something I've accidentally dropped off during the years of upgrades and migrations, by all means please let me know :) And of course, I'm always taking requests on ideas for ftp or other services that would be beneficial to the community :) J -----Original Message----- From: cctalk [mailto:cctalk-bounces at classiccmp.org] On Behalf Of Mouse Sent: Friday, November 27, 2015 2:40 PM To: cctalk at classiccmp.org Subject: Re: classiccmp work Hmm. I thought classiccmp.org used to make stuff available to the world via FTP. Have you dropped that, or am I hallucinating in thinking it was ever the case, or what? /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse at rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
