Since setting up 4.0, I have a couple of minor problems which I've
been unable to solve.

1. I can telnet into my machine (orca), but can't ftp.  I've used the
control-panel User/Group Manager to configure user "whiting" -- I just
don't know what to do to get ftp to work.  Here's output:

  Connected to orca
  220 orca FTP server (Version wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-11](1) Tue Sep 3 18:44:35 EDT 1996) ready.
  530 User whiting access denied.
  Login failed.

2. I no longer seem to have a connection with my printer.  The setup
is exactly the same as I had in Picasso, which worked great.  I even
try restarting lpd from the control-panel, but the printer does not
respond at all -- it's as if the cable is unattached.  (It still works
in 3.0.3 and Windows95, though.)  Has anyone else had this problem.  I
can't find it on the errata sheet.

Overall, though, I'm very impressed with 4.0.  Good job, RedHat!
