Bugid: 1080677 -------------- ftp with mput * does not always work. ftp indicates transfer is complete, and the file is created on the remote system but it is emtpy. This is an intermittent problem. The files are between 16k-70k, binary and ascii. He did specify binary mode for the binary files. It sometimes fails with a bad file number. However, a partial wildcard like mput l* works ok. This does not always happen in the same directory. Install Instructions: --------------------- AS ROOT: 1. mv /usr/ucb/ftp /usr/ucb/ftp.fcs 2. cp `arch -k`/{OS release}/ftp /usr/ucb 3.
