The "bin" command in ftp is short for "binary" as distinct from "ascii" mode.
It is more likely that you will need "ascii" mode.
Try transferring the file as a test into say /tmp . Then compare with the original file using the "diff" command. I guess that the differences will be to do with your debug mode change to the file.

Bug
I received confirmation that it is a ascii file


Ok my steps will be:


Rename the original Logging.xml file to Logging1.xml on unix - mv Logging.xml Logging1.xml

Then open up the command line in Windows
ftp to the Unix Server(spkupa401)

navigate to folder - cd /WebSphere/MicroStrategy/HealthCenter/spkupa401.cdev.c.net

Use the put command in "ascii" mode
ascii

put the Logging.xml file from my H:\ into the directory /WebSphere/MicroStrategy/HealthCenter/spkupa401.cdev.c.net - put Logging.xml



Code:
mv Logging.xml Logging1.xml 
ftp to the Unix Server(spkupa401) 
cd /WebSphere/MicroStrategy/HealthCenter/spkupa401.cdev.c.net
ascii 
put Logging.xml
