Ravi,

   I created a link between the sheets. i.e.

   ln -f /users/mannh/html/SMUG /usr/spool/ftp/SMUG
   ln -f /usr/spool/ftp/ /usr/local/etc/httpd/home/archives

Then, you reference the directory or file by 
ftp://www.server.com/archives/file.name.hqx

Works great for me.

     Hello,
     
     I am trying to get ftp interface work with Mosaic and need some help.  
     Do I have to set up anonymous ftp account on my server first before I 
     actually use "ftp://ipaddress/directory" in my html document?  I tried 
     looking at other servers' html and seems like all you need is just ftp 
     address?  I get the generic the server is refusing to give access or 
     down message while I try to access the ftp command.  Is there a help 
     file on any server which could give me some help?
     
     Thank you so much.
     
     ravi
