There's online help, which under File Transfer / IND$file options
shows all of the things you mentioned (I think .. I didn't check them
all). You have to pass them as arguements (one time only) in the
transfer / options / additional parameters field.  (the parameters
will be remembered from session to session)

I just had to re-install Win XP,  I'll take a look at what you've been
up to with the IND$file
