Got it and thanks to all for the help. Just for the record I cut and pasted to the command line of;
ncftp: unknown host ftp: unknown host lynx: connected but died three times at the end of file wget: connected, downloaded the index.html file and quit links: connected, retrieved the file ok first try. Maybe wget would have worked ok if I knew more about it, in any event I am indebted to this list- thank you-.
