  13. I'm having a problem reading files when I ftp to another site. I'm
  14. running SunOS UNIX Berkeley 4.1.2.
  15.  
  16. I can login fine with a guest account, but I can't find the command
  17. to read the files.  "vi" doesn't work. I typed "?" from within ftp,
  18. which displayed a help screen, but none of the commands listed
  19. appeared that they would open a file.
  20.  
  21. I tried "type" "read" to no avail.
  22.  
  23. If somebody knows the correct command, either email me or post to
  24. this group.
  25.  
  26. Thnaks and Happy Holidays.
