isn't resume supported by most ftp servers nowadays ?  and/or isn't
resume support part of the http 1.1 spec ? i'm not too sure about
the latter, but i was sure apache supported it.

I saw this subject on :

http://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/


and found a shareware program "GetRight" to investigate it. This program has advice screens that indicate if a web site supports "resume." I concluded that many sites running M$ II$ have not turned on "resume." Further advice and opinion are welcome.
