Thanks to all who replied to my message. I also would like to apologize
for not paying closer attention to the policy document.
Thanks to
anderson@neon.mitre.org (Mark S. Anderson) for sending me
the policy documents and FAQ.
The overall response was to try the wuftp daemon available at
wuarchive.wustl.edu.
It works great thank you.
