I recently tried FTP Explorer (Windows), and in the past I used Fetch on MacOS doing simultaneous transfers in both cases. On closer look it seems those applications use the first ftp control connection for the main window, and upon a file transfer request issue another ftp control connection to handle that file transfer, including the ftp data stuff. I just transferred two large files at the same time under FTP Explorer and observed 3 control connections and two data connections (PASV mode). -- Paulo Licio de Geus Internet: pauloat_private Instituto de Computacao - UNICAMP voice: +55 19 788-5865 Av.
