<soapbox>A simple file transfer should not require such complicated looking
instructions</soapbox>

Have you identified where the process is breaking? For example, are you able
to connect to OCLC? If so, can you authenticate and transfer a file? If the
file transfers, have you transferred it to another place where you can
verify that the file you're sending is good?

BTW, Shirley is right. You do not need to be a member of IUG to participate
on their list and view their archives.
