It has been noted before that there is an ftp bug when using the ip address
instead of the
server name. To avoid the problem make sure you use ftp://ftp.rebol.com and
not ftp://207.69.132.8
Not sure if this relates to your ftp problem though. I made that change in
one of my scripts that runs in
a forever loop on a permanent connection. It has currently been running with
no problems for over 1000 hours.
Prior to making the change it would lock up the system after a random number
of downloads or connections.
Cheers,
Allen K
