ReadyNas FTP User permission to file size
Hey
I am developing with .Net and try to get files from my FTP server.
I have created a user, which has read/write permissions (for testing purposes)
I also created a share and activated the FTP as protocol.
When I try to get a file via my .NET application, everything works as expected.
But, when I try to request the size of the file, then I get an FTP error, which tells me, that either the file isn't availabe or I don't have permissions to this file.
This seems to be related to the FTP server protocol on the ReadyNas.
Could you please give me advise, how it would be possible to set the special permission "SIZE" on to the files.
THX a lot in advance
This appears to be a fairly common problem when using .net to access unix/linux FTP servers (just based on googling).
You might need to set the transfer type to binary before you query the size.
