Subject: BRL FTP

BRL's *new* FTP server (up on all BRL PDP-11/70s last week) does in
fact do ASCII and IMAGE transfers now.  It's not clear to me that
a binary file from MC would make any sense (36 bit words -vs- 8 bit
bytes), but it should work.  We have only tested BINARY transfers
against other UNIXes, though, so if you have problems, be sure to
drop a line to <action@brl>.

FYI, we are devoting most of our attention to our VAX and HEP UNIX
systems these days.  While you folks are finally growing from 8 to
16 bits, we are gladly fleeing the restrictions of 16 bits and running
to our 32 and 64 bit computers.  (Exit hardware-snob mode).

                       Cheers,
                        -Mike
