We had a problem with CA*NET where we ended up with zero length file. Unfortunately, this ended up passiing through to my config builder. I fixed the obvious flaw in the script but this doesn't preclude short or broken transfers. Way back when I was at RIPE we made each file that was up for ftp have the following at the end of the file: # EOF I would suggest everyone add this and we also make this part of any checking script. Can we get quick consensus on this. --Tony. -------- Logged at Mon Jun 12 19:15:01 MET DST 1995 ---------
