[CLUE-Tech] odd ftp

[charlie oriez]

I run ftp at the console/command level since it is easier to manuver around 
directorys.  Ever since upgrading to Mandrake 8.2 last saturday, I get the 
following odd responses.  Note that I then proceed to login and do my 
processing without further processing.  It looks like FTP is sending some 
extra pre login command lines.  How do I stop it?  First one is a freeBSD 
server.  Second one is running something from an older version of Red Hat.
