Urgh.  Don't go to our UB-MTS system (or the mirror UM-MTS system) for 
ftps.  Several reasons, the most relevant to the person out on the net is
that the MTS systems don't have heirarchial directories.  

Instead, try our new archive site, mac.archive.umich.edu (there is also
an msdos.archive.umich.edu if you're interested).  This one's on a unix 
system, so you get a directory structure (which is nice when there are
several hundred files out there).

For now anyway, the IP address for this site (mac.archive and msdos.archive
are actually the same machine) is 141.211.165.34

The only thing I'll note is that the mac archive is still undergoing the
final touches, so if you find something in one place one time and it's not
there when you go back, look around.  

Send comments on the archive to dauter@mac.archive.umich.edu.

When you get in (login anonymous, pw yourrmailname), cd to archive.
