I am in need of some information on ftp procedures.  We are connected
to a 'uunet' server which we automatically dial up several times a day
to exchange mail.  According to our extensive documentation :-), we do
have a type of ftp capability.  All you have to do is issue th
following incantation:

uucp -r uunet\!/usr/spool/ftp/<filepath> /usr/spool/uucppublic

and sit back and wait for the magic to happen.  Of course you do have
to specify a file in <filepath>.  Now if I wanted to get the file that
lists all the other available files from both summex and apple.com
(which is what I want to do), what would I put in place of <filepath>
to cause this wonderous thing to happen?  Any help would be sincerely
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
	John Snow
