#32 Colon in file name

[Frank Wolfe]

I do have a strange behavior to report, and am hoping someone might have a suggestion.

The file I am sending is required to have the time in a very specific format: 17:32:50. The file will fail during transmit, I believe because of the second colon. If I change the file name to 7:3250, so that it has only one colon, the transfer is successful. Also, it does not seem to be the name of the actual file that I am sending, it seems to be the file name I want it to end up on the other server, because I am taking the second colon out of the receive file name only, and it will work.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Frank

Never mind. Problem is the same with regular FTP commands. Wish I could cancel my post. I will keep trying to figure out how. Sorry.
