Please try a current lftp version (the newest is 4.7.1). The problem is automatic uncompressing entities with "Content-Encoding: gzip". The workaround was added in lftp version 4.5.6. You can also do "set http:decode false" to disable uncompressing. -- Alexander. _______________________________________________ lftp mailing list lftp@uniyar.ac.ru http://univ.uniyar.ac.ru/mailman/listinfo/lftp
