When doing anonymous FTP to dsrgsun.ces.cwru.edu, I can't get any
response to the ``dir'' or ``ls -l'' commands. FTP opens an
ASCII mode connection, waits, and reports that the transmission
is terminated; no data is written to the screen.

The reason I'm posting here is that the problem may be dependent
on my site (diku.dk, Denmark), and I'd like to know if any others 
have the same problem.

The problem is really bad when the README file is not updated,
and you can't even see the date of any files that may be new and
interesting..... .
