HI,
 I am trying to run FTP to a Unix server from gnu emacs(NT) instead of
DOS like command prompt.
 I use  M-x ftp  (defined in net-urtils.el)  and cannot get past the
point after I supply my username.

Version:GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-msvc-nt4.0.1381) of 2002-03-19 on
buffy.

Thanks
artist

I'm guessing you're using the version of FTP which comes with NT.
Like most MS software, it probably sucks.  Try the version from cygwin
(http://www.cygwin.com).
