Well there is a problem with the AMERISTAR ftp, It will work correctly with
a BSD system, Suns included, but it will hang when talking to an IBM or
microVAX running VMS and the CMU software.  The problem is that the Amiga
version is too picky about the returned status codes. This results in the
remote host thinking that the transaction succeeded and the Amiga thinking
that it failed, volia lockup!.

There are a few other problems with the telnet and rlogin support that
showed up when we upgraded our Suns to 4.0 also.
