I don't have any good ideas - here's a suggestion -
o does your ftp demon create the files with different owner, permissions,
date while it's downloading, than wind up on the file after its been
closed?
when I download a file with ncftp I can see with lsof that the file is open
and ncftp has it open, but after the download I don't see it open. Can you do
something similar with the files in your upload directory or look for files
opened by your ftpd?
if someone is doing an upload to the ftpd machine and you
have /etc/services with all the correct strings and look
with
`netstat -ap | grep ftp`
you'll see something like
ftpd_machine:ftp other_machine:high_port ESTABLISHED
ftpd_machine:ftp-data other_machine:another_high_port ESTABLISHED||TIME_WAIT
when the upload is over, the ftp-data connection will
disapear. When the client disconnects the ftp connection
will go.
You could look for an inactive ftpd, then possibly
block||kill the ftpd, do your transfer and then restart the
ftpd
