server converts files to .bin

wjw · 10-23-2007, 04:59 AM

I ran into this problem with our os x server. Since I couldn't find any answer using google and the search in this forum, so I thought I'd post it here.

When some of my colleagues place files in an FTP folder, the server (for some reason) converts those files to the .bin extension. So when a client tries to download that file from our server he can't open it.

My colleagues place files in the FTP folder by connecting to the server through afp and than dragging and dropping the files.
Server Version: MAC OS X Server 10.4.10 (Build 8R218)

I hope someone can tell me why this is happening and how I can solve this.
Thanks in advance!
