An extension to the FTP standard to include 'TYPE M' for these types of transfers is one way to do it, the best I know of. I encourage anyone who has the source code to work on this. We will distribute it as soon as we can check its reliability. Contact me if there are any problems. Tim Krauskopf National Center for Supercomputing Applications timk@ncsa.uiuc.edu (217)244-0638
