Princeton cares about your IP number, which may change with MAC address
(or may change otherwise?)
I think.
Your talking about the main babase box? Cathrine's machine.
I can't ftp to that box either. But then I've changed my IP address
too since I've moved....
Axel/Princeton may or may not support ftp to that box. I may have
to kick Cathrine off and work at it, unless Cathrine is willing
to dig around in the ftp server config. We did do that once
together, I think.
My new IP is 69.73.17.250. What is yours?
Anyway, I don't recall it supporting sftp, just ftp.
