Ftp File Size

[Purgpow]

i got the FTP set up and my friend tried to up load a 64 meg file and it would only allow 5 meg sessions.

 

Is there a setting that i can chane for this FTP account to beable to take bigger files?

I upload larger files than that with FTP. What FTP client are you using?

I have uploaded 60 - 70 meg files,

took a while, but it worked using CoreFTP lite.

 

It may by the ISP has a limit

but you should not have a problem.

Try another FTP program with auto reconnect.

No my Friend said that the FTP account that i made for him on my sight would not let him upload any files bigger than 5 megs.

 

the way i understood him is that the FTP acount on my site was limiting his upload.

 

is there a setting on the FTP accounts that limit file transfer size?

I am pretty sure that you can not put a limit on the upload filesize through ftp, unless the disk space quota is reached of course.

 

Can you post the exact error message here?

He said that he would start the upload and GO do some other stuff and would come back to check on it and the upload was interupted a 5.4 megs. so he tried it again and it happpened again at 5.4 megs.

 

I myself gave it a try and i had no problem with my FTP program.

 

So it might be his Software ... I dont know.

 

Thanks for the replys

Have him try CoreFTP lite,

its free and seems to be very fast.

But if he is on a dial-up it might be a win modem problem

I went to an external modem and my disconnect or interupt troubles went away.
