Well, I finally got this to work and thought my findings might be helpful
for others that are trying to use the cool ftp feature in ant.
I am not exactly sure what was the turning point to get this to work, but I
think adding the ftp to the server value was the key. Before, I had the ip
address. You could do without the taskdef if running from the command line,
but this is required to use in Eclipse.
<path id="classpath">
<pathelement location="${ant_lib}/jakarta-ant-1.4.1-optional.jar"/>
<pathelement location="${ant_lib}/netcomponents.jar"/>
</path>
<taskdef name="ftp"
classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.net.FTP">
<classpath refid="classpath"/>
</taskdef>
<target name="ftp_upload" depends="init">
<ftp server="ftp.website.com"
remotedir="${ftp_dir}"
userid="${ftp_user}"
password="${ftp_pass}"
binary="yes"
depends="yes"
verbose="yes">
<fileset dir=".">
<include name="**/*.*"/>
</fileset>
</ftp>
</target>

Doesn't seem to make a difference, even if the time is the same on both
machines.

Have you checked the time in the server and your machine? If the clocks are
mest up, your machine may think that all files are new.
