Hello,

I have a factory installed MAC II with A/UX 1.0 on a 80MB hard disk. 
Recently, I installed an ethernet card to hook it upto our local unix
network.  This went fine, and everything worked great.

However, when I "get" a file with FTP, the files are all owned by "root".
Has anyone notice this too, or is it something I did/didn't do?

I'm a fair unix user, but this is my first time administering a unix system,
so assume I don't know anything and tell me even if it's something really
obvious.

Thanks for your help!
