[ale] Ga Tech's FTP server status

[lilElvis at smyrnacable.net (lilElvis)]

Thanks to all who made the correct call on this. After forwarding some of
the helpful suggestions here (and a little haggling on my part), my ISP's
tech support saw fit to add my IP into the DNS tables. I'm now able to log
into the Ga Tech ftp server...

regards,
 -Rusty
