SEAGULL Secure FTP Pro has several miscellaneous options that can be set.
Miscellaneous Options ----
Place folders on top when sorting: Check to sort folder first then sort files
Prompt for destination name before file transfer: Check to prompt for destination filename before a file transfer
Disable automatic LIST after connect and uploads: Check to keep BlueZone FTP from issuing a LIST command upon connect and after an upload. This is helpful when connecting to hosts that have very large directories like Mainframes and iSeries hosts.
Overwrite LIST command with: Check to overwrite the standard LIST command with a server specific command (example: DIR, or LS).
Enable Passive Mode: Check to use Passive Mode for file transfers and LIST commands. This option is usually required in order for FTP data to pass through firewalls.
Enable Keep Alive Timer (Minutes): Check to use the Keep Alive Timer to keep the FTP connection open while you are away from your computer.
Use Destroy prefix on Uploads: If checked, every upload will have the directory prefix added automatically to the STOR command. This option is used for certain FTP hosts that do not allow clients to change into the upload directory.
Use reduced buffer size: If checked, SEAGULL Secure FTP Pro use a smaller buffer size which will in effect update file transfer progress back to the end user more frequently. Designed to be used during relatively slow connections like dial-up.
