I've been transferring text files via the FTP site accessed by inputting the IP Address of the machine into another computer. I now have my machine making hard drive backups of itself and I want to transfer these files in the same way, however, the file size seems too large because the file size in bytes is listed as a negative value and I get a page stating: Forbidden - Your client is not allowed to access the requested object. I've tried changing the permissions of this Backup file to match a text file which can transfer over and I've had no luck with that either. Any suggestions?

That's the equivalent of a 401 Unauthorized httpd error message:



Page exists but is only accessible to specified users (not you). Possibly the site or page has been temporarily taken off-line for maintenance or other activity.

A negative file size indicates a buffer overrun of a signed integer. The ftpd included with IRIX is absolute trash, especially in versions prior to 6.5.22. you will need to come up with an alternate way to do it if it continues to show a size of negative.
