   Nothing. What's so evil about leaving the FTP server up? :7)
   Anyway, why should I have to install third-party software on a new
system to get a patch for which I've paid a contract, especially when
they no longer distribute the patch CD-ROMs? They want it both ways? If
I'm supposed to use a web broswer and sign in and everything, what do I
do on a headless, no-X server?
