If I had a clue what the problem was, then I'd try:
Connected to tweedledumb.cygnus.com.
220 tweedledumb.cygnus.com FTP server (Version 5.60) ready.
Name (cambridge.cygnus.com:law): ftp
331 Guest login ok, send ident as password.
Password:
230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.

It works for a traditional ftp client, netscape, I don't see anything weird
with the cambridge setup. I don't know what to do.
