Sounds like you are transferring the file in ascii mode. The server is
supposed to expand the local EOL character to <CR><LF> and the client is
supposed to convert the <CR><LF> to the local convention.
Looks like the server is adding them and your code doesn't show you
stripping them off. You need to do a binary transfer. See RFC0959 for details.
