I tried that, and it didn't work... Immediately came back to the command line, with no changes in the files. I checked with md5sum, and it didn't match up. Granted, I used rsync.secsup.org for the server, and it came back giving me command lines for the command which were totally different than what the article said it should be. So I'm either using a server that's set up differently or the commands just don't work that way. Either way, I think I'll stick to commandline ftp for now (to skip the GUI overhead, I usually get 10Kb more than with Gftp or any other...) If anyone gets this working, please let us know! It'd be nice to take less than 9 hours on a DSL line (usually get 65K downloads) !! --
