	You're right, after I downloaded that it worked.... anyway, I just
compiled FTPD, and it seems to work! However, I have these two problems:

	(1) I always get "User unknown" (User Anonymous Unknown, User FTP Unknown,
User root unknown). How am I supposed to add a user? It calls getpwnam...
I'm wondering if maybe that only works on Windows NT (?)
	(2) chdir doesn't resolve! That'll be a problem, for now I commented it
out. Where is that defined?

	SJ
