should set it off.
Mike, NCFTP has been around for years--it has both *nix and Windows
versions. It has many extensions, one of them being a recursive
directory crawl. So "get -R <filespec>" gets files and crawls the
directory tree. The message happens when the root directory has
finished and the first file from the next directory is fetched. I can
make it happen over and over again.
Would you like a log? I think NCFTP can get one. This was invoked from
Linux; I can also try it from Windows.
