hello, I have a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE (now 4.5-PRERELEASE) (i386) installation, dualbooting with windows. There's an NTFS partition, and it's mounted in FreeBSD. Reading files from it works allright (I can run exe's using wine). But the strange thing is: when logging in to the machine via ftp and requesting a file from the ntfs partition, i get a file of the same size but the contents are messed up. The received file seems to be a mixture of data from the original file and other files from the ntfs partition. FTP'ing from a UFS partition works okay, so I can transfer the files by first copying them there and then doing the FTP transfer. scp works okay. My guess is that the ftp daemon tries to do some caching on the file which doesn't work with ntfs filesystem ... Anyone got a clue? greets To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
