Thanks for the response. The first time I tried to ftp using install.ftp I received a "failed" message twice. I then went into the Empeg shell and set "rw" and when I tried again it executed completely with out any errors. I realize that the first command in install.ftp is a set rw but for some unknown reason it seemed not to do so in my case???

Is a script just a text file? I am very slowly getting used to Linux/Unix terminology, sorry for the elementary level of my questions.
