I just upgraded a few RH 6.2 servers with wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm when I noticed that "ftpd" is broken. Now wu-ftp is not always copying the complete file any more. Here is how you can reproduce this problem on your 6.2 servers. (I didn't get a chance yet to test the new wu-ftp version on 7.2 servers.)
In order to reproduce this problem you have to ftp to a 6.2 server where you installed wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm. But when you are asked for the password, provide the wrong password. After that try to login again but this time by executing "user <account>" within ftp. Once you are logged in, try to do a get of the file wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm. I nodiced that it depends on the size of the file. Here is an example: linux2:userp$ ftp linux1 Connected to linux1.pjm.com. 220 linux1 FTP server (Version wu-2.6.1-0.6x.21) ready. Name (linux1:userp): 331 Password required for userp. Password: 530 Login incorrect. Login failed. ftp> user userp 331 Password required for userp. Password: 230 User userp logged in. ftp> cd /tmp 250 CWD command successful. ftp> get wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm local: wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm remote: wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm 200 PORT command successful. 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm (216611 bytes). 226 Transfer complete. 217388 bytes received in 0.0741 secs (2.9e+03 Kbytes/sec) ftp> quit 221-You have transferred 217388 bytes in 1 files. 221-Total traffic for this session was 217945 bytes in 1 transfers. 221 Thank you for using the FTP service on linux1. linux2:userp$ linux2:userp$ ls -al wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm -rw-r--r-- 1 userp users 216604 Nov 30 15:10 wu-ftpd-2.6.1-0.6x.21.i386.rpm linux2:userp$ As you can see, ftp says that it copied 216611 bytes, but it copied only 216604 bytes! I did not had this problem with older wu-ftpd versions.
