I've been trying to ftp the 950412-SNAP bindist for the last few days.  The mget
bin.* works for the first file, but then blows up with: 

421 Timeout (300 seconds): closing control connection.
No control connection for command: No such file or directory

I don't think it is an mget limitation/problem, since that worked ok for
downloading the boot and cpio files.  So what gives?

While I'm here, when is the 2.1 release going to be available?

Thanks for any help.
Dave
