This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------_=_NextPart_001_01C83278.F02E3E9F Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable We currently have wu-ftp version 2.6.2 running on AIX version 5.2. Recently a user reported that he could not ftp a file larger than 1G. I have verified that this is true. =20 =20 If I change the ftp daemon to use IBM's ftp daemon, I can write files larger than 1G. So, it is not a limit of the OS or the filesystem. I have done some research on wu-ftp and found that the 'data-limit' parm can be specified in file ftpaccess to limit the size of files. However, this parameter is not specified in our ftpaccess file. My research told me that the default value of data-limit is 'unlimited'. =20 =20 Is there a parm for wu-ftp that could be causing this issue?
