Thanks for your answer. I am using WinSCP.

test is the file created
Code:
[arsystem@uslzua0001wsrv conf]$ ls
aeufix63c.txt  ar.conf           ar.conf.backup  arufix63c.txt  test
apufix63c.txt  ar.conf.1.backup  ar.conf.bak     snmp
[arsystem@uslzua0001wsrv conf]$ ls -lad
drwxrwxr-x 3 arsystem arusers 4096 Feb  3 09:35 .

I know he can create the file because when FTP is completed the file (ar.conf) it is there but with 0 bytes of size.
