Re: cygwin 2.78.2.9: ftp doesn't connect

OK, I'm upgraded now.  Thank!

ftp works, but only if I disable ZoneAlarm firewall.
ZoneAlarm does ask whether to grant access to ftp.exe,
but nothing happens thereafter.  Is cooperation with firewalls
something which requires extra stuff on the part of cygwin, or
would it be a problem with ZoneAlarm?

That's the Cygwin subversion.  You can see it when using setup.exe.
You should update to the latest versions using setup.exe.  You are
not using the latest stuff.  As I said (and as has been announced
on this list and cygwin-announce), the latest versions are
cygwin-1.3.4-4 and inetutils-1.3.2-15.  Both contain important
bug fixes which could resolve your problem.
