My experience has been that in most of the cases it is due to network congestion or other associated problems. In that sense, there is little you can do about it. I believe 'ncftp' allows you to resume FTP downloads where you left them, but you should verify this point by reading the man page for the application. ---------------- Nitebirdz Mozilla--> http://www.mozilla.org/ Linux XFS--> http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/ _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
