The short answer is that secure Fetch isn't ready yet -- there's
problems with the installer.
The Help Desk got complaints about this too. Probably because the
latest i/s newsletter promotes <http://mit.edu/is/help/ftp>, and that
page links to the documentation for secure Fetch:
<http://web.mit.edu/is/pubs/ns-54/test/>
is-home: I made some changes to /is/help/ftp/. I commented out the
link to the Fetch documentation. And I added a link to an interim
secure file transfer solution for Macs.
Marty: sorry for the error. Thanks for letting us know.
