can not download files containing "::" in the name

Hi!

I do have a couple of files on my ftp server that contain "::" e.g.

Coloumb::MD5.3

and smartftp retries forevery to download them but can't somehow.

The smartfp version I use is:

Characters like ":" are automatically converted to "_". The problem might be somewhere else. Please post the log from the queue item.

Thanks

strange. I can not get smartftp to produce any log files for these items. For all other items log files are generated, but not for these. Any hints on what I should do ?

thx, that seems to fix this problem
