Eh? Source to most of TCP/IP is available, including the FTP server. See section 2.3 of the z/VM 5.3 Program Directory. But I didn't mean that *you* should do the investigation, just that you should open the PMR with the TCP/IP team rather than SFS. > We cannot reproduce the problem at will.

Do > you have any particular FTP server trace in mind? There's only one server trace, all or nothing. My approach would be a Support Center-provided trap in the server to catch an append operation wherein the target file shows a zero length, or a trap that dumps relevant information in the event an APPEND fails.
