WS_FTP suggests the following solution if you receive one or more "Blocking call cancelled" messages and the file transfer is incomplete: If you are using the Microsoft TCP/IP stack, part of the Windows 95 and NT operating systems, try setting the Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) to 576. For more information on this error see IpSwitch's Knowledgebase article: http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/WS-19980612-BK21.htm -------- Derick Fernando Tony Wells wrote: > When trying to ftp multiple files from a Win200 machine using WsFTP, > eventually the ftp daemon just hangs with an error message "blocking > call cancelled".
