[Xitami] FTP problem with LF versus CRLF in ASCII files

[xitami@lists.xitami.org]

The files were created using MVS.  The previous version of Xitami did
receive the file with CRLF.
It is only after upgrading to the last version of Xitami that the problem
appeared.
They're the same files send from the same mainframe, received on the same
NT but with LF rather than CRLF.

I don't quite understand your question. Xitami is a server, so you (or
somebody else) put files on it so the whole world (or a subset of it) can
get them. Do you mean that the files you download from your own server have

lost their CRLF, replaced by a LF?

I don't think Xitami changes anything in the files.
It doesn't even know what a CRLF in a file is, it just see files as a chunk

of binary data.
Probably the files were created using Unix?
