I'm really getting frustrated with the Ant FTP task.

For most of the last two days, I have been trying to FTP a moderate sized collection of files to first one server, then to another server. In virtually every case, my target has stalled at some point within the target but rarely in the same spot twice. There are no error messages, it just stalls. Even if I leave it alone entirely for an hour or two, it just sits there. Once, after a long wait, it suddenly started moving again but in every other case, it just seems to freeze. I have -debug and -verbose enabled and all seems to be going well. I can access the servers via FTP clients or whatnot so I know the servers themselves haven't gone down. After a lot of frustration with one server, I assumed that the server was the problem so I obtained hosting on another server and then tried to FTP to that but have the very same problems. It seems as if it is the Ant task itself that is messing up, not the server.

Can anyone suggest a way to determine the root cause of all this trouble? Or suggest an alternate task to accomplish the same thing?

I have upgraded to Eclipse 3.5.2 (Galileo), which uses Ant 1.7.1. I am running the script from within Eclipse, not from the command line. The commons-net-2.0 and jakarta-oro-2.0.8 jars are visible on the classpath.

I don't know what else to try. This problem is using up MUCH more time than I can afford to spend.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
