Finder / builtin FTP
Hi!
I'm just new here, but I found out a strange behaviour: when connecting to FileZilla Server running on my pc via the built in FTP in finder, it reports a wrong filesize (to be precise, just half) of an app. 7GB file. It stops the transfer, and the result is incomplete. Used a different client (filezilla), and everything works fine (except some strange changings in the transfer speed). Anybody knows how to have finder-ftp do it the right way?
2nd problem:
When I open bigger directory structures on ftp with finder, I can see that finder is automatically downloading content (a lot!!), although I didn't say so. Thought it might be connected with a preview-function, though I didn't find any option to turn this off. I just killed the two ftp-processes with the mac "taskmanager", which helped. Any ideas to teach the finder to behave like a "normal" ftp-client?
Those problems occur on the latest filezilla-ftp-server, which worked really fine so far on pc...
Greetings!
