Can anybody tell me how to (if it is possible) mget (get multiple files at a time) from such sites as sumex.stanford.edu? I can do a normal get, but cannot use mget. In the manual it says that mget is possible. Thanx in advance. I'm confused. I use NCSA telnet just about every day, *including* connecting to sumex.stanford.edu, and I've used mget many, many times without trouble. What kind of error message are you getting?
