ftp problem

Greetings, transfering a file from a 11.0 server to a as/400. The record length of the file is 408, when it ends up on the as/400 the record length is 409, is there something I'm missing? Can ftp be doing something to me?
Thankyou for your help...

Re: ftp problem

Hi:

If you do an ASCII mode transfer you will have the UNIX newline translated to a Carriage_Return+Line_Feed character combination, increasing your record by one character. You can avoid this translation by specifying a BINARY transfer.
