lftp has 'put -c'/'reput', but it may just restart from the beginning, depending on whether the server likes it. (I've never have to try it...) If you have ssh access, try sftp, I think the standard draft for sftp does define a write offset which can be used for resuming uploads. W -- "And this goes as...What did I get wrong?
