add to this the bug I reported as to which I have still recieved no corrispondance. when using mirror to fxp and I'm 'guessing' the remote ftp contains invalid data... it sends it straight to my harddrive.. I'd like an option to prevent lftp from sending any data to my harddrive. so far I've stuck it in a 555 directory but sometimes still it writes to my root. I don't know why.. it's set to fxp_only.
