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!
