Transfering file through FTP through Binary Mode
Hi,
I'm uploading files using internet explorer.
1.Open internet explorer 6.0
2.Open site like
ftp://172.45.15.1
3.Copy files
The files which I'm copying are basically zip files. What is the default transfer mode, I mean ASCII/BINARY ???.
The problem I'm facing, while extracting these copied files, these files get corrupted.
Is there a way I can transfer files in binary mode using IE(ftp).
Thanks in advance.
Ronald

Dear All,
Business Users are transfering ( FTP ) a CSV file into the IBM AIX box with transfer mode as ASCII. But I want to convert the CSV file from ASCII mode into binary mode, as my script expects file in binary mode.
Is it possible to do through Unix commands?
Thanks in Advance,
