When I upload a file via FTP it gets shortened. Can anyone suggest why?
The correct number of bytes is sent as far as FTP is concerned, but when I run 'ls' after the transfer the filesize is reduced.
Is this to be expected or have I messed something up?
Sounds like you are sending a binary file in ASCII mode. That will truncate it at the first EOF character it comes across.
No, it's a binary mode transfer of a text file and everything after the first blank line gets stripped off.
