I'm not a command-line power-user and I tend to prefer graphical applications when available. :/
In fact I don't even know what gnomevfs-copy is. Is it the command used by the Remote server applet ? How do I use it to make a test (i.e. where/how do I copy a file with it : on a FTP server, locally...) ? The same goes for the ftp command : I'll first have to remember my student time ten years ago before I can make a test. :) All I can tell for now is that I've stopped using the Gnome applet to transfer file and use the FireFTP extension for Firefox. It works flawlessly, even with the web provider (OVH) whose servers have a strange behaviour. -- Gnome Remote Server applet modifies file permissions https://launchpad.net/bugs/71229 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
