the latest version of gFTP. If you are, please submit all bug reports to

descriptive as possible. Send me what OS/version you are running, what
compiler you are compiling with, the output of <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>gftp --info</I
></SPAN
>
and any other important information. If you get gFTP to crash, it would be very
helpful if you could send me a backtrace. If you do not know how to do a
backtrace, download the source code from my website. Edit the Makefile, and
make sure that -g appears in the CFLAGS variable. Then recompile gFTP, but do
NOT run make install because it will install a stripped binary in $PREFIX/bin.
Then type gdb ./gftp. Once you have a (gdb) prompt, type r. When gFTP crashes,
go back to that terminal window, and type bt, and put that output in the bug
that you file with bugzilla.</P
><P
>I also have a gftp-users mailinglist setup. I have a link to the archives
on my main webpage. If it is strictly a bug report, please submit it to
Bugzilla instead of the mailinglist. Bugs that are submitted to bugzilla are
much easier for me to track.</P
