I don't have any trouble going to the FTP site, THANK GOODNESS!! I'm talking about the Tivoli web pages on the IBM support site. A lot of new users are not ready to navigate the FTP site and figure out patch/fix levels on their own; we have taught many support people to start with the Tivoli web pages, which have NICE select drop downs to help them figure out the current levels of code they need; when they click the web page, it sends them to the RIGHT PLACE on the FTP site. Either the web pages should WORK, or they should be eliminated entirely. They should not be implemented in a broken state.
This is the web site I'm talking about: http://www.tivoli.com/support/storage_mgr/adsercli.htm Start here, select the WinNT-2000 , then try going through the SUPPORT DOWNLOADS link.... -----Original Message----- From: Richard Cowen [mailto:richard_cowen@;CNT.COM] Sent: Wednesday, October 23, 2002 3:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: OK IBM _ ENOUGH ALREADY with the IBM/Tivoli TSM website - I downloaded the AIX server v5151 yesterday, I can navigate the site today. ftp index.storsys.ibm.com Connected to serviceb.boulder.ibm.com. 220 serviceb.boulder.ibm.com FTP server (Version wu-2.6.2(1) Mon Dec 3 15:26:19 MST 2001) ready User (serviceb.boulder.ibm.com:(none)): ftp 331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.

I used to get the clients from the Boulder FTP site and even that has not worked for a few weeks now. I'm sure glad I kept the clients I downloaded on my local hard drive else I would not have been able to get anything done this week!
