Well the problem has been partially solved. I had a suggestion given to
me offlist that the problem could be because I was not explicitly
designating 'type binary' in my FTP command list. After doing this the
files started to be uploaded without being corrupted.

The files originate on my linux server and are then FTP'd to a Windows
server. I can access them via a shared folder on the Windows server or
download them via FTP.

So at this point the upload is working fine and the file is uncorrupted
while sitting on the Windows server but I still can't download them via
FTP correctly. As was suggested to me offlist this is probably because I
need to explicitly set 'type binary' on the download as well.

In any case a solution has been reached.


Thanks for your time!
Chris.
