NcFTP and ASCII transfers - bug?

[Luke Bakken]

Hi,

I posted the message below earlier today.  I rebuilt ncftp from source and
I still am observing the same problem.  I downloaded the Win32 version and
it does correct line ending translation.

Anyone else care to try to verify this?

Thanks
Luke

Subject: NcFTP and binmode mounts

Hi all,

I have noticed the following behavior with NcFTP and Cygwin 1.3.3 :

All mountpoints binmode
Create a DOS text file with notepad
Use NcFTP to transfer the file to a UNIX box, specifying ASCII mode
the file has ^M characters on the UNIX box.

If I use ASCII mode with WinNT ftp or Cygwin ftp, this doesn't happen.
Also, specifying textmode mounts doesn't fix it either.

I'm going to try re-building ncftp.

Anyone else see this behavior?

Thanks,
Luke
