>Description:
	I would like to use a secure channel to discuss this, and I know
	that in the past "confidential" has been ignored.  In summary, I have
	found at least one password that causes the install script to choke
	because the ftp client can't send it; it may just need ""'s around the
	URL, but I'm not sure.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Use my password to ftp-get the distribution files.
	Workaround:
	I used a dummy account with a stupid password.
