Upload files to a Windows FTP server via the Linux command line. Then in another Windows client log on to the FTP server download, but the file size changed after downloading, EXE file error can not be correctly executed. A deliberately packaged file (. rar) also prompts for file corruption.
This has happened several times.
After search found: The original through Linux to the FTP server upload files have two modes of character mode (ASCII) and binary mode (Binary). The default is ASCII mode. General upload EXE file and compression package to use binary mode.
Specific actions:
Login ftp, before uploading files, in the ftp> state input bin can be.
And then we can put/root/desktop/test.rar/test.rar.
Note that all two paths are with file names, so there is also the ability to rename them while uploading.
Upload finished, use LS to check it.
