Normally, you would login as "anonymous" and your password should
be your e-mail address, ie.. myname@thisplace

Most systems allow you to type 'ftp' instead of anonymous.

If you can find it, ncftp is a great ftp client.  It automatically
logs you in and cds you to your last directory.

Oh yeah and it keeps a list of ftp sotes for you!

try man ftp for more info on ftp

Also try "man netrc" for info on how to get ftp to log you in automatically.
