Hi

I'm having problems with ftp from ftp.NetBSD.org in that ftp session 
fails to close and require CTRL+C to continue.

ftp from a local uk ftp site is ok:
   $  ftp.xxxxx.xx.uk:/xxx/xxxxx/xxxxxxx
   ......
   229 Entering Extended Passive Mode
   ......
   226 Transfer complete
   .....
   221 Goodbye
   $

From ftp.NetBSD.org
   $   ftp ftp.NetBSD.org:/pub/NetBSD/misc/mouse/README
   .....
   229 Entering Extended Passive Mode
   ......
   226 Transfer complete
   .....
   221-
   ^C
   421 Service not available, user interrupt, Connection closed.

   $

I've also tried from Win98 and FreeBSD with same problem so it 
appears not to be specific to OS or ftp client but to ftp.NetBSD.org.

This makes it difficult to install via pkg_add or pkgsrc. On my 
faster pc (p4-2000) there is eventually continuation after many 
minutes at the '221-' but I've left slower pc (k6-400) for over 30 
mins before hitting CTRL+C.

I assume best might be to remove ftp.NetBSD.org from PKG_PATH and try 
to locate a mirror that is up to date.

Any ideas as to what the problem is?
