That has not been the case when sessions dropped in the past.
Unfortunately, I do not see my file when I log on to the site and enter
a DIR command.

I am no expert though it appears the control session timed out.
The data session probably did the transfer and the control session
wanted to give you the 226 Transfer Complete message.

Subject: FTP Problem
Near the end of a 605MB (the size of the VMARC file; unpacked,
it is over 2.7GB) FTP, I got the message "421 Service not available,
closing control connection." Dumb me, I looked in the numbered client
and server messages and could not find a 421. Then I looked in the
section called "Reply Code Messages" and found a 421 with different
text. It says to issue an Open command to reestablish connection with
the server. This brings to mind a couple of questions with my guesses in
parentheses:
* Is there any point in resuming the connection if all I
was doing was sending one file? (probably not)
* If I do reestablish the connection, will the FTP be
resumed, picking up where it was when the connection was lost ? (no)
* What is needed in the way of an Open command?
(irrelevant if my first 2 guesses are correct) I entered no such command
initially, I entered an FTP command, answered the userid and password
prompts, then entered the commands BIN and PUT.
* I the loss of service appears to have been outside of
VM. Is there any way to determine if the loss was at the vendor's server
or somewhere between the two endpoints?
