I tried to download the floppies from this URL but when I tried to list the directory with ls, the connection was cut:
ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.5-RELEASE/floppies |

I just tried it and it seemed fine. Try one of the mirror sites. Here is a list of mirrors:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.IS...irrors-ftp.html You just need to change the prefix of the site. Good luck! |

Are you by any chance behind a firewall that prevents the use of Active-mode FTP?? Have you tried setting your FTP client to Passive-mode??
I'm behind a firewall that prevents the use of Active-mode FTP, and I get the exact problem you describe if I forget to set Passive-mode. Connectiongs, change directory, no problem. Try to get a directory listing, though, will kill the connection. Something to think about. ![]()
