Re: [Gnu-arch-users] ftp troubles

[Carl Humphrey]

Wonderful , thank you steve , I now have made it a step further.

I am now able to get archives , check their logs and compare for changes, 
however when I go to import i get a cannot lock revision error.

I decided to create a new fresh archive to ensure there were no stale locks.

Given a clean ftp account , with an empty archives directory on the ftp server 
i did the following on a second machine

2:> tla my-id "Carl Humphrey <address@hidden>"
2:> tla my-id
Carl Humphrey <address@hidden>

2:> tla make-archive address@hidden 
ftp://arch:address@hidden/{archives}/address@hidden
2:> tla archives
address@hidden
    ftp://arch:address@hidden/archives/address@hidden

---------------------------------------------------
** at this point the ftp server has the following

ftp> cd archives
250 "/archives" is new cwd.
ftp> ls
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls.
drwxrwxr-x   3 arch     arch            96 Dec 29 14:35 address@hidden
226 Listing completed.

ftp> cd address@hidden
250 "/archives/address@hidden" is new cwd.

2:> tla archive-setup foo--mainline--0.1

I am using tla-1.1--2003-12-16.tgz on debian linux
The ftp server is running HPUX11.11 Ncftpd


Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you 
Carl Humphrey
