Am unable to obtain access to subdirectories under /pub at either ftp.mozilla.org or archive.mozilla.org. I can see firefox, thunderbird, etc, but cannot go down any further.

use http://ftp.mozilla.org/ or https://ftp.mozilla.org/ or http://archive.mozilla.org/ The ftp protocol on ftp.mozilla.org is turned off as of Aug 5. https://blog.mozilla.org/it/2015/07/27/product-delivery-migration-what-is-changing-when-its-changing-and-the-impacts/

Fortunately my ftp client (gftp) has the option to use http and https protocols. Thanks !
