This is not the case, since I was the only one who had access to the 
server. I just used "CuteFTP", an FTP-client for windows, that does 
multiple connections when up/downloading more than one file. Somehow the 
FTP server must have misunderstood this. Maybe a port-problem? I am quite 
sure that it's the error on the FTP server side. One additional info that 
could be helpful: my requests came from behind a firewall, so all of them 
were from the same IP address in passive mode.

I hope that the programmer(s) of the FTP server read this and I'd be glad 
to offer any help I can to solve this problem (but not with python, since I 
do not know this language - yet)

PS: even _if_ I would try to change a file from two connections at the same 
time, the server should block the second request until the first is ready, 
isn't it?
