be found on webcrawler.  On webcrawler enter 'ftp search' and it is the 
second hit.  From there you need only search for the filenames.  That is 
how I found all of my djgpp files.  I just searched for the names that 
were in the readme.1st file,   which I found by chance.
  It is also nice if you can't get through at the ftp site which you were 
trying to get to, because it could give you thousands of hits for 1 exact 
filename.
