        To those who encoutered it before,

        I've learned how to sucessfully FTP to other sites with all those
wonderful Fred Fish files on them.  But, once I get them back to my Amiga
my files will not unzoo....it reads into the first file and then it chokes
and says that's corrupted.  Argh!
        I've tried to set it to binary and ascii when I do my ftp.  Neither
one works.  Here is exactly what I've tried.

        Selected file - all files have been ONLY zooed.

        set transfer to binary & ascii

        used get to get file

        Once the file is on my local UNIX system I
        used Kermit on the UNIX system here to transfer it back to
        my amiga.  On the Amiga end I used Handshake V2.12a and it's
        kermit.  I get no errors during transfer but nothing will unzoo
        nicely at all.  Small or big files!

Any info would be much appreciated!  Thanks.
