[tlu] Updating MacTex

[Matthias Wischer]

Hi there,

unfortunately I coukld not update my TeX. I deactivated the firewall on the Mac. But the same error occured.
I tried your proposal with ftp in the terminal. I got the message ‚226 Transfer complete“. I am not a really Unix crack ;-) What do I have to do next?

Thanks
Matthias

The other potential issue is running out of ftp connections on ftp.tug.org <http://ftp.tug.org/>; the limit used to be set pretty low to avoid abuse.
