Gayatri Deshpande updated VFS-273:
----------------------------------

    Description: 
I was trying to transfer a plain text file with fixed length fields. The length 
of any line in the file must be fixed. For this whitespace characters are used 
to pad within the line as well as at the end whenever remaining length of a 
field is unused or in case of field with null values.

On AIX, where the length should have been 401 characters, only 93 characters 
are transferred (seemingly first 93)
On Windows, for the same file, only 75 charatcers are transferred (seemingly 
first 75)

Files before & after transfer are attached.
