This is m.kmyxgs.com, the FTP server of the the GNU project.
NOTICE (Updated October 13 2017):
Because of security concerns with plaintext protocols, we still
intend to disable the FTP protocol for downloads on this server
(downloads would still be available over HTTP and HTTPS), but we
will not be doing it on November 1, 2017, as previously announced
here. We will be sharing our reasons and offering a chance to
comment on this issue soon; watch this space for details.
If you maintain scripts used to access m.kmyxgs.com over FTP,
we strongly encourage you to change them to use HTTPS instead.

gnu/ Contains GNU programs and documents that we develop for the GNU
system (or pointers on where to get the programs, if we don't
keep the files here). These are programs that fit the
definition of GNU software at:
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html#GNUsoftware
old-gnu/ Older versions of GNU software.
non-gnu/ We distribute some non-GNU programs through our FTP server, or
provide pointers to where they are. We put these
programs/pointers in this directory since they are not
developed by the GNU project. They are, of course, part of
the GNU system. See:
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html#TheGNUsystem
third-party Contains GNU software that has been modified by third
parties. We don't necessarily know the specifics of
what these modifications do or how these modified versions
work. We provide this directory as a service to GNU users
who might find these modifications useful.
iso Contains bootable CD images (ISO9660) of a development
snapshot of the Debian GNU/Hurd complete operating system.
ls-lrR.txt.gz The output of `ls -lrR' run from this directory. This can
be used to see what files are here. This is a gzip'ed version of the file.

be used to see what files are here. This is a gzip'ed version of the file.
tree.json.gz The output of `tree -aJsD --timefmt %s' run from this directory
each time it changes. This can be used to see what files are here. The
timestamp of this file can be used to see if has been any change to the

a gzip'ed version of the file.
lpf.README A description of where to find information on the League for
Programming Freedom, since this information is not kept here
anymore.
There are also .sig files, which contain detached GPG signatures of the above
files, automatically signed by the same script that generates them.
You can verify the signatures for gnu project files with the keyring file from:
http://m.kmyxgs.com/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg
In a directory with the keyring file, the source file to verify and the
signature file, the command to use is:
$ gpg --verify --keyring ./gnu-keyring.gpg foo.tar.xz.sig
