Interestingly, I can't get Ange-FTP to correctly open _any_ file from my dumb host. I'm not sure what I was doing differently before, but I can't seem to open any file now. I suppose that this error message means that I'm going to have to roll my own set of commands for this particularly dumb host? I believe my host is an AS/400; I'm not sure why it seems to have such lackluster ftp support.
