download hangs when file is empty, OS shows 27kb

[markn]

i connect to an mvs server. by "default" it shows all files as 27KB regardless of whether the file is zero bytes or 100KB.

one file i am supposed to download can be zero bytes, but i have no way of telling. i do know that the file is empty when coreftp "hangs" during downloading. i then abort the download, and the file name and size of zero bytes shows in my local directory.

is there a configuration setting that would allow the zero byte file to be downloaded as zero bytes without me having to abort the download?

using 1.3c build 1446; WinXP SP2;

thanks,
markn

Select the MVS server type in your site profile. You can do this by going into the site manager, selecting your site, then advanced -> general -> server type 'MVS'.

If it doesn't fix it, right click on the remote directory, select directory commands -> directory info, and send it to support.
