www.grin.net/~cturley is an HTTP site, not an FTP site. HTTP sites are for
web sites, not file storage, which is what FTP is for. The FTP-like file
listing is the cause of the UNIX on the HTTP server. Netscape always lists
files and folders like that when it gets a list of files, independent of
whether it comes from HTTP, FTP, gopher, or whatever.
