I have had vsftpd exhibit this behaviour. There are two parameters in its config file which control this. ascii_upload_enable=YES ascii_download_enable=YES At least, this has been my experience with Fedora 9. Perhaps Debian fixes this, or ships the vsftpd.conf with those two parameters enabled. > <snip> > Alan Altmark > z/VM Development > IBM Endicott > -- Q: What do theoretical physicists drink beer from?
