	Sorry about the previous empty message -- fumble fingers strikes again.

	Is it my imagination or are other people experiencing problems as
well.  I have noticed lately that I can't FTP files bigger than 20 or 30 KB.
The symptoms are that after 6 or 7 minutes (clock time) the FTP connections
(to wherever from nrl-aic) break, there are no messages or indications from
the remote server just the "ftp>" prompt.  Secondary to this when I try to
open a new connection to the same host I'll get the "host unreachable" message,
but if I telnet to any other host -- and from there FTP or telnet to my
original destination I can get through, and after backing out of that a direct
FTP will again get through.  Anybody else had similar problems?  If so, any
pointers would be appreciated.
