ftp zip files corruption
Hi

I have a zip file that I am ftping to another server. After I have ztped the file it is corrupt and cannot be opened by winzip.

Can anyone throw any light on to why this would happen.

I have no problems with sending the individual files, but when zipped into one file it becomes corrupt.

Cheers
Gary

How do I set it to binary?

I am doing the below at the moment.

echo "open $FTP_MACHINE" > $tmpcmd
echo "user $FTP_USER $FTP_PWD" >> $tmpcmd
echo "put *.zip" >> $tmpcmd
echo "bye" >> $tmpcmd

ftp -n -v < $tmpcmd > ${tmpcmd}.out

Cheers
Gary
