The transfer works fine using Attachmate. It doesn't work using WININET. I don't have any other FTP clients here to try it out. Can someone suggest one?

Wininet establishes the session correctly. However, when I try to do an ASCII Text download, it fails with a 501 error and the following message is returned "FTP Server not configured for SIZE." I've tried to find this message pretty much everywhere I could think of (M$, IBM) but it doesn't appear.
