Try this:

open ntmachine
user ntuser ntpass
cd ntdirectory
prompt off
mget ./*

The "./" tells MPE that it's OK to use the HFS namespace, so your
extra.long.names.with.weird.extensions should transfer OK.

Note that if your NT names exceed 16 characters, you'll need to FTP them to an
HFS directory on the MPE side, not an MPE group.
