Re: FTP 425 Error Code

The problem is that occasionally the FTP log shows a "425 Can't build
data connection'
error followed by a second message of "425 duplicate name". I'm a
little confused by this
because the "get" statement in the script uses the "(replace" parameter
which I would
expect to cater for any duplicates. Apart from this, the files are all
retrieved into
QTEMP and are given a unique number in the script.

.00 0425-Can't build data connection for 192.168.0.1,21066
.00 0425 duplicate name

When the error number is followed by a '-', that means that the text
is continued. When the error number is followed by a blank, that
means it is the only/last line.

So you really only have one 425 error, whose human readable text
(assuming that nothing was truncated) is:
Can't build data connection for 192.168.0.1,21066 duplicate name

Unfortunately the error still doesn't make any sense. :(
