GACK! (was SUMMARY: FreePort Express no longer at NovaLink; where *is* it?)



Uh-oh ...  Desipte my comments of just a short while ago ...

are in fact there, attempts to download the software fail, since the
URLs for downloading are ftp://freeport.novalink.com/pub/*, which is
where I was originally trying to grab the stuff from.  (Yes, I *know*

... but I'd actually been looking in freeport.novalink.com (which is
where I was *supposed* to have been looking); sorry for *that bit of
