Can't reach the main Slackware directory, login required

Hi, everyone.

The Slackbook reads:

Quote:

The precompiled Slackware kernels are available in the /kernels directory on the Slackware CD-ROM or on the FTP site in the main Slackware directory.

I am unable to reach it, what's the proper login?

Code:

[mike:~]$ ftp ftp.slackware.com

Connected to ftp.slackware.com.

220 207.173.172.131 FTP server ready

Name (ftp.slackware.com:mike): user

331 Password required for user.

Password:

530 Login incorrect.

Login failed.

Remote system type is UNIX.

Using binary mode to transfer files.

ftp> 221 Goodbye.

Thanks in advance.

M.

Try "anonymous". Having said that, you probably want to use one of the Slackware mirrors.
