STERLING: I used to get multiple "connecting to..." messages also. As stated in several of my previous messages, My script would halt after about 16 connections - very frustrating... I noticed the problem went away when I started using the DNS name rather than the IP address. Must have something to do with this. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 1999 2:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [REBOL] FTP Problem - Multiple Connections Re: REBOL attempts to maintain one connection per site contacted. If more connections are being made, you should see a message like "connecting to site-name" on the REBOL console. I tested your script here and it finished flawlessly with only one connection made. So when you run it, does it print out multiple "connecting to ..." messages? Sterling > I have a problem that I hope can be solved.
