Am trying to develop some scripts to replicate the html/gif/js files comprising
a website from one machine to another and am falling foul of FTP. The "best"
error I get is this one...

There's absolutely nothing in FTPLOG.ARPA.SYS to give more information on this
error and the $stdlist of FTPMON has
no indication of what's going on. This could be an ftp client error, or an ftp
server error...or both.. I just can't tell.

This is just sooooo frustrating! Just when I thought HP Software quality was
good :-(
