Uploading in Ascii mode is great when you've got a text file and you want the newline characters to turn out correctly on a Unix machine. Windows uses a <CR><NL> combination, while Unix must use something else -- anyway they seem incompatible. So, the best thing to do is to probably use binarie uploads unless you're transferring plain text. I've had to FTP a lot of computer code in my life, and keeping it all straight can be a PITA. ;) Hope this helps. -James Turnbull To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
