Honored ContributorThank you everyone for helping out. I would've stepped in earlier but the first msg in the thread didn't contain any indications that it was a Linux issue so I moved on.
Mr. jdkirby... I'm one of the co-authors of the Getting Started Guide and the Reference Guide (I also wear other hats but that's irrelevant at this point in time). I'm sorry if our documentation hasn't addressed the problems you're encountering to your satisfaction. Your suggestion about a FAQ and Appendix are good ideas, and I must admit, you're not the first person to suggest it. If you have any other suggestions/recommendations, please feel free to send it my way. With regards to additional help. I'm always willing to at the very least look at a problem although I cannot always guarantee that I can respond in a timely fashion. I do try but I have other responsibilities at work. The quickest way to get my attention is to ensure that the word Linux appears somewhere in the title or body of the first message. Follow that up with what you're trying to do and any specific error messages that you're getting. That will give me an idea of where the problem might be. Letting me know that you're still working on trying to FTP to a compact flash card really ties up my hands because I can't even begin to imagine where the problem might be. Is the network up and running? Did you install ftpd into your target filesystem? Are you receiving and "invalid password" error message? Or is the connection just being refused? Maybe the permissions haven't been set properly? etc... I do want to help, like I try to help others on this board. But I need more information.
