     This doesn't look like a 3000 to me.
     (At least, it's not how *ours* looks
      when I login using ftp.)

You can only specify REC= when you are "get"ting or "put"ting *to* an
HP3000, that is, the 3000 is the target, not the source. It's not a
parameter recognized by any other server. On the off-chance you *are*
trying to go to a 3000, is this an HFS (POSIX) directory? And does
anyone know if you can specify the MPE ftp parms (like REC) in HFS?
