Everything works fine from modern command line, but the       vintage Fetch app doesn't allow you to enter any commands. I'm guessing the       old app doesn't support passive mode so I tried switching the Passive Mode to       "No" in the FTP        server settings without any luck...              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: Agency HUB, Dunedin - New Zealand | Fido<>Usenet Gateway (3:770/3)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 114/705 120/340 123/120 131 129/305 154/10       SEEN-BY: 220/70 226/17 30 100 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 428 452       SEEN-BY: 229/550 664 700 981 1016 1017 240/5832 249/206 307 317 400       SEEN-BY: 250/5 8 267/800 282/1038 292/854 298/25 301/1 305/2 3 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 340/1000 342/200 633/280 712/848 770/1 3 100 340       SEEN-BY: 772/210 220 230       PATH: 770/3 1 317/3 229/426           |
