Mt. Pleasant,
For those out there that are interested. I will make space available for
these ports, and allow each group to maintain uploads for the subtree.
Please contact me if you are in need of an account for this use.

Well the ftp server has been real solid for the past month and seems to

If I set do_deletes to 0% inside of mirror then say I mailed you the log
