Package: wput
Hi wputters!
The following occurs for a file nearly 3GB in size...
$ wput dvd.iso ftp://(username):(password)@(ftpserver)/
Error: File `dvd.iso' does not exist. Don't know what to do about this URL.
Nothing done. Try `wput --help'.
It does not occur when the file is split into 1G pieces[1][2]...
wput dvd1.iso ftp://(username):(password)@(ftpserver)/
wput dvd2.iso ftp://(username):(password)@(ftpserver)/
wput dvd3.iso ftp://(username):(password)@(ftpserver)/
In my mind there are two issues:
1. Something is blocking large files
2. wput is misreporting the problem
#2 is clearly a wput bug. If wput can report the problem more
accurately, maybe we can identify where the file-size limitation lies.

[1] I made the 1G files like so...
$ dd if=dvd.iso of=dvd1.iso bs=1M count=1024 skip=0
$ dd if=dvd.iso of=dvd2.iso bs=1M count=1024 skip=1024
$ dd if=dvd.iso of=dvd3.iso bs=1M count=1024 skip=2048
[2] I verified they are correct like so...
$ cat dvd[123].iso |md5sum
$ md5sum dvd.iso
