Which ftp server? vsftpd does this quite often if it is not customized correctly. In particular, in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf , you need the lines:
ascii_upload_enable=yes ascii_download_enable=yes I think they are comment'd out in a section which looks like: # By default the server will pretend to allow ASCII mode but in fact ignore # the request. Turn on the below options to have the server actually do ASCII # mangling on files when in ASCII mode. # Beware that on some FTP servers, ASCII support allows a denial of service # attack (DoS) via the command "SIZE /big/file" in ASCII mode. vsftpd # predicted this attack and has always been safe, reporting the size of the # raw file. # ASCII mangling is a horrible feature of the protocol. ascii_upload_enable=YES On Fri, Mar 8, 2013 at 12:47 PM, Davis, Larry (National VM Capability) < [email protected]> wrote: > When pulling files using the GET command in FTP from LINUX to VM, the > CR/LF is lost and the files end up as one huge line in CMS. > > Is there a function on the Linux side I need to change to prevent this or > is it an entry in the FTP client on VM? > > > > Larry Davis, > HP Enterprise Services > E-mail: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, > send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or > visit > http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > For more information on Linux on System z, visit > http://wiki.linuxvm.org/ > -- This is a test of the Emergency Broadcast System.
