ftp question

When you use REBOL's built-in FTP protocol, does it send a "bye" command when it is finished downloading? Or does it just let the FTP connection time out? Ryan C.

Heya ryan, rcic> When you use REBOL's built-in FTP protocol, does it send a "bye" command rcic> when it is finished downloading? Or does it just let the FTP connection rcic> time out? It hangs around for ages on the offchance it might get reused. I find quite a lot of the FTP behavior quite annoying but Holger wrote a mail saying why that was all good and so that was that :) -- Mat Bettinson - EuroGamer's Gaming Evangelist with a Goatee http://www.eurogamer.net | http://www.eurogamer-network.com

FTP, by default, caches up to 5 connections. This value is customizable at: system/schemes/ftp/cache-size so just change that to 0 and all connections will close up and say goodbye immediately. Sterling
