I am currently working on writing an interface program using
FTP.  The program is being written in c to be used on both
sun workstations and PC's.  

I am looking for any examples that demonstrate on either a unix
system or a PC running DOS a user program that successfully
connects to the FTP protocol.

I have the command communication already setup and can send commands
and recieve status performing commands like STAT, ALLO, etc.  I
am having trouble with any commands that require a data connection
to be established.

If anyone has an example or suggestions on how to properly associate
a data socket for sending/receiving data via FTP, I would appreciate
the help.

Since this is a very specific question, please mail suggestions/code
to me.
