The files, which should be 144 bytes in length, end up as 80 bytes in length, and, yes indeed, some records have been truncated.  How can I get this darn thing to transfer with the correct length?  I hope this is an easy setting that I'm overlooking...

You could transfer the files in bytestream mode, and no record truncation will
occur.  From the Win98 command line ftp client I specify a bytestream transfer
(instead of "binary" or "ascii") by doing:

        quote type L 8

But your files will end up as bytestream files on the e3000, which may or may
not be what you want.
