Steve,

FTP interpretes the ;rec... as part of the NT file's name.
Just insert a blank before the ;

Subject:  FTP and REC Option ONCE AGAIN and AGAIN



I'm attempting to FTP some files from a NT server to a
HP3000.

I'm connecting from the HP3000 to the NT box and
attempting an MGET command with a build command
afterwards. This does not work and I receive the
following error.

ftp> mget i@;rec=-303,1,f,ascii
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list.
550 i@;rec=-303,1,f,ascii: The system cannot find the
file specified.
Error 0 (SOCKERR)

Any ideas

Steve
