Magnus Axelsson commented on VFS-182:
-------------------------------------

This is not possible in VFS. That's why I suggested a patch.

If I remember correctly it's the following statement that turns on binary mode 
(ascii i default in ftp):
client.setFileType(FTP.BINARY_FILE_TYPE) 
You need to modify the source and remove that statement before you connect.

Good Luck!
