I've just completed it and the last command you should use (starting with c) left me pondering. I'm a linux user for many years, and I'm bloody familiar with it, but why on earth should I use it over ftp?! I was trying to 'get' the required file unsuccessfully, then man, then think, then try, then man… After all that I went for a spoiler here and found it. But this is no ftp protocol, no, it is not!

I'm not still sure, if i'm writing a letter of complaint or asking something. Ok, what ftp server does the program emulate?

It's just not a very realistic challenge.

The program doesn't connect to any FTP server, instead you could work with that file offline. Reason is that, they have to protecting an FTP server is a tedious process, so they've made an challenge which is virtually exploiting.:whoa:
