Thanks for the tip Corona688. I have many different files and directories that are being mirrored. Transferring in binary like you suggested keep the local formatting, but then I have to manually convert them into IBM-1047 in order for them to be readable on the server.

Do you know of any way i can auto convert them all but still use binary transfer mode?
