Been so many years I forget the syntax but you might be able to force
the other end to behave appropriately. TYPE E and MODE B for binary
stuff, yes. But look into "QUOTE" and "SITE" commands in the FTP client
for sending "TYPE I" or "TYPE A" and the like over to the server.
I hope this helps.
But honestly, I really dislike FTP these days. Have for a long time.
Where I have sign-on, I use 'scp' instead. Where I don't, I use
HTTP/HTTPS. (And you can throw data sets over the wall to/from USS.)

I was doing a gsktrace and FTPing the resulting text file (after processing the

it was fine. Next iteration (new trace file) I could not get it to work at all.
It looks like Windows FTP server is convinced the file is "mixed" (even when I
chtag -r it) and thus not doing translation.
I realize this is confused, but that's because I'm confused; I'm used to FTP
and Ascii and Image and MODE B TYPE E and like that, and think I've tried all
options. The fact that it worked once is almost worse.
Ideas?
