Perhaps this was the reason but I should probably reopen the bug which claimed more verbose error messages. The failure was caused because only passive mode seems to work - at least I was asked by manual ftp-client to switch to passive mode (I do not know until know what passive excatly is). Also dupload caused a passive mode related error message. In contrast to this dput just stopped with a Python error. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
