Fair enough Mike. :-) Here is my full df (I hope you don't mind the -h
option):
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda5 1.9G 89M 1.7G 5% /
none 266M 0 266M 0% /dev/shm
/dev/hda8 23G 12G 10G 53% /home
/dev/hda1 157M 18M 138M 12% /mnt/windows
/dev/hda9 2.4G 34M 2.2G 2% /tmp
/dev/hda7 24G 2.2G 20G 10% /usr
/dev/hda10 2.4G 150M 2.1G 7% /var
I always download in the /home partition. Currently I have symlink from
/archive to /home/archive, and I am trying to download the 8.2 Mandrake
ISOs to /archive/Linux/ISO, which is in the home partition.
Here is the directory listing after the download aborts:
-rw-r--r-- 1 doug users 98M Mar 17 12:20
Mandrake82-cd1-inst.i586.iso
Here is the cut-and-paste of my NCFTP session:

NOTE: If you want NcFTP to guess automatically, "set auto-resume
yes"
Mandrake82-cd1-inst.i586.iso: File size limit exceeded
[doug@solo ISO]$
I get this same error each time I try to download an ISO file (whether I
resume or start fresh). It gets to 98MB and stops. I tried to ncftpbatch
these files, and I wound up with a directory full of 98MB iso files. :)
Do you need any more information? Do you have any ideas?
Thanks a bunch Mike!
