Hello managers,

we are moving our anon ftp area from ultrix to digital unix...
and at the moment i can't convince wu-ftpd to evaluate ftpconversions
(which was no problem under ultrix)

I have wu-ftpd-academ-2.4.2.13 under digital unix 4.0b.

I have ftpconversions in the same directory as ftphosts, ftpaccess and
ftpusers and with these latter ones i could play around successfully.

I have built a statically linked version of gzip and gnu-tar and put them
into ~ftp/bin, but whenever i login via ftp and try 'get <file>.gz' or
'get <file>.tar' the only answer i get is "<file>.gz" not found, no such
file or directory. This is true for ftp via anonymous and for ftp via a
normal userid...

What did i miss?

Thank you!

Bernt Christandl
