- This is a request for a new service.
-
- I need ftp-request in reverse.
-
- That is, someone who can't enable ftp login for uunet staff and can't
- set up a direct uucp link to me has to get a moderately large pile
- of data to me, with a modicum of security.
-
- I'd like to achieve this by paying uunet for the privilege of an
- ftp-only login account, chrooted to a spot with a moderate amount of
- disk space. I could give my correspondant the login info, and then
- uucp the results up here.
-
- The uunet tech support person I spoke to said that my only option is
- to use anonymous ftp, which has no security and can run into disk space
- limits.
-
- I'm happy to pay for this service.
