      Visiting the / folder of an FTP server in Zope, Emacs will list
      the contents of the root folder::

         I get the following error:

         FTP Error: OPEN request failed: ftp: localhost#8021: Unknown host.

         Any idea what might be the problem?

         Thanks.

         Sounds like you are using the Xemacs syntaxt in emacs.
         It seems to think the server name is "localhost#8021".
         Try using the other syntaxt.

         Another possibility to try using "127.0.0.1" instead of
         "localhost".  This will eliminate on internal step in the
         process and thereby eliminate at least one possible source
         or problems.
