Don't mix ftp and http for the same host. In fact, do not use ftp at all, it's evil. That should fix the issue, I suspect both the http and the ftp method want to write the same file, which then fails because one already completed and moved the whole thing away. -- Debian Developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev When replying, only quote what is necessary, and write each reply directly below the part(s) it pertains to (`inline').
