Topic: Dart FTP delete method wipes out file attributes

I get no error when I use the Dart FTP delete method, but when I go back to the ftp server I find all the file attributes have been wiped out. This renders the files themselves inaccessible. Here's what a file listing looks like:

----------  1 owner  group       259 Apr 4 0:44 210676.997
----------  1 owner  group       253 Apr 4 0:51 210677.997
----------  1 owner  group       253 Apr 4 0:58 210678.997
----------  1 owner  group       253 Apr 4 1:05 210679.997

The server in this case is Windows NT 4.0.

Any ideas or suggestions?

This is probable related to a well know bug in IIS 4 that causes files to be locked after the FTP size command is issued. See the following KB article for info:

Hope this helps!
