MTU size problems will often result in this.
If the MTU size is not correct, Linux (or any other OS) will never see the very last bytes of the download, and as a result not close the file properly. In turn under Linux you will get a file that ends up short in actual size. In windows the same thing gives you a zero length file, even though it seems you downloaded the whole thing... You might want to research the PPP settings paying particular attention to MTU "ifconfig" will report your current settings... -JMS |-----Original Message----- |From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Michael Dannhorn |Sent: Monday, October 22, 2001 12:20 PM |To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |Subject: [expert] download not finishing | | |Hi, | |I tried these ways to download files from web |- netscape |- konqueror | |Both browsers shows that 100% are an on pc |but download box keeps on the screen. | |When kill (close is not working) and try to |unpack the files gzip is telling me un unexpected |end of file. | |Any ideas? | | | | |-- | |ciao |Michael | |*** Macht's gut, und Danke für den Fisch ... *** | |
