Hi,

After I have used the get command WITHIN ftp command of ms-dos to retrieve files from my ftp server site, and then try to open the files in my local directory it just gives the message that "no preview available".

I can view these jpeg files when looking at them within the ftp server site so I don't know why I can't do the same when I have puilled them into my local directory using ms-dos ftp.

Any ideas why this would be?. Probably is nothing to do with getting the files via ms-dos and is some other setting.

Thanks,

Yes. Am getting a 550 error in MS-DOS. Not sure what that is telling me though.

Thanks. I have tried that but no joy.

I enter the get command for a .jpg file and receive the following back (see the attached).

File is sent to my local directory but is empty (0 KB).

I have read that this "550 No such file or directory" message is to do with permissions. However I can't find anything which explains what is required to rectify this.

Appreciate any help.
