I'm not sure if this is a protocol limitation or if the client or server is letting me down, but my FTP transfer is failing. The size of the file that ends up on the disk is 2147483647 bytes which is exactly (2^31 - 1) or 2GB - 1 byte.
I'm using: client: net-ftp/ftp-0.17-r2 server: net-ftp/proftpd-1.2.9_rc2 The session: ftp> recv backup.tar.gz local: backup.tar.gz remote: backup.tar.gz 200 PORT command successful 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for backup.tar.gz (2876603552 bytes) backup.tar.gz: short write 450 Transfer aborted. Link to file server lost. 2147482760 bytes received in 224 secs (9.4e+03 Kbytes/sec) Any fix? Or workaround by splitting the file? It would be nice to not have to... :[ Thx, -Eric -- arctic bears - email and name services 25 email [EMAIL PROTECTED] CA$11.95/month DNS starting at CA$3.49/month - domains from CA$25.95/year for details contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://www.arcticbears.com -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
