Doing the setControlEncoding would be wonderful, I have recompiled the code doing what you suggested and it does work, but I um can't use it because its not an official release :)

If he needs to change the encoding for the control connection, he can recompile the source with FTP.__DEFAULT_ENCODING redefined. If it is a common requirement to use multi-byte character encodings on the control connection, we can add a setControlEncoding or some such method and/or make the control input and output reader/writers protected. There may be some way for telnet (the FTP control connection) to autonegotiate the character encoding, but there's no reason to believe FTP servers dealing in UTF-8 or other multi-byte encodings implement a negotiation. daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
