IE is the worlds greatest web browser! ok seriously make you links like so: ftp://ftp.bobsfilestore.com and ftp://anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx IE should realize that the latter is for anonymous access.

It's off by default. -Mike -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
