I have no access to it Kenny. Tim took it off the board.
No I didn't. I removed the instructions so new users would use the new system. Guest FTP is NOT secure as we have found out again. From now on, users who want to use the old system must PM me for a password. Last night someone deleted all the files in the ftp folder. I have restored them from backup. That is getting to be a pain and while I have the IP address of the dumbass, I don't want to have to spend all my time restoring files.

Thats very nice indeed-tidy and intricate-one thing doing it once--but having to make it repeatable--that cool!

The first thing to do was cut a barrel to size
